In fact, SCAN_OFFLOAD_BE_V0 means `old` format used by `old' firmware version,
which isn't a main flow. I prefer to keep here unchanged, and modify cfg_len
along with SCAN_OFFLOAD_BE_V0 for v0 firmware. 

As existing patterns, this will be

	u8 cfg_len = sizeof(*h2c);
	u8 ver = U8_MAX;

	if (RTW89_CHK_FW_FEATURE(SCAN_OFFLOAD_BE_V0, &rtwdev->fw))
		ver = 0;

	...

	if (ver == 0)
		cfg_len = offsetofend(typeof(*h2c), w8);

	...

	if (ver == 0)
		goto flex_member;

	...
