PATCH 1/1 rt2x00: Fix regression for rt2500pci

Since commit:
commit f1aa4c541e98afa8b770a75ccaa8504d0bff44a7
Author: Ivo van Doorn <[email protected]>

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.
