Since commit:
     commit f1aa4c541e98afa8b770a75ccaa8504d0bff44a7

     rt2x00: Write the BSSID to register when interface is added

mananged mode in rt2500pci was broken, due to intf->bssid containing
random data rather then the expected 00:00:00:00:00:00

This is corrected by sending the BSSID to rt2x00lib_config_intf
only in AP mode where the bssid is set to a valid value.
