Subject: [PATCH 5.3 087/148] cfg80211: initialize on-stack chandefs

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>

commit f43e5210c739fe76a4b0ed851559d6902f20ceb1 upstream.

In a few places we don't properly initialize on-stack chandefs,
resulting in EDMG data to be non-zero, which broke things.

Additionally, in a few places we rely on the driver to init the
data completely, but perhaps we shouldn't as non-EDMG drivers
may not initialize the EDMG data, also initialize it there.
