nl80211: fix NL80211_ATTR_CHANNEL_WIDTH attribute type
The new opmode notification used this attribute with a u8, when it's documented as a u32 and indeed used in userspace as such, it just happens to work on little-endian systems since userspace isn't doing any strict size validation, and the u8 goes into the lower byte. Fix this.
