Some APs advertise that they may be HT40 capable in the capabilites
but the current operating channel configuration may be only HT20.
This causes disconnection as ath9k_htc sets WLAN_RC_40_FLAG despite
the AP operating in HT20 mode.
Hence set this flag only if the current channel configuration
is HT40 enabled.
