wifi: mac80211: Don't finalize CSA in IBSS mode if state is disconnected

Browse Source 
When we are not connected to a channel, sending channel "switch"
announcement doesn't make any sense.

The BSS list is empty in that case. This causes the for loop in
cfg80211_get_bss() to be bypassed, so the function returns NULL
(check line 1424 of net/wireless/scan.c), causing the WARN_ON()
in ieee80211_ibss_csa_beacon() to get triggered (check line 500
of net/mac80211/ibss.c), which was consequently reported on the
syzkaller dashboard.

Thus, check if we have an existing connection before generating
the CSA beacon in ieee80211_ibss_finish_csa().
