orinoco: always use latest BSS info when caching scan results
Always copy the latest BSS information from the firmware's results to the driver's BSS table to ensure that everything is up-to-date (IEs, supported rates, encryption status, etc). Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
