iwlwifi: Check BSS ctx active before call mac80211
It is possible that the BSS context is not active (for example when the current mode is set to GO), or that the vif->type is different than station. In such a case we cannot call mac80211 to report the average rssi for the interface (the function assumes that the vif is valid and that the type is station).
