Is that _really_ worth special-casing in the scan control path? It's not
like this is a performance question here.

Maybe ieee80211_is_radio_idx_in_scan_req() shouldn't WARN_ON() then or
something, so we can reuse it. Or maybe (better?) just reorder the
checks there, if the chan_radio_idx==-1 and radio_idx==-1 would return
first, and WARN only if we found a scan channel that isn't covered by a
radio?

And <2 seems really strange anyway, ==1 should basically never happen,
it's equivalent to ==0, as in no list of radios?
