My prior commit here introduced a bug due to copy/paste,
it was iterating the links assigned to 'ctx->replace_ctx'
and I replaced it by iterating links assigned to 'ctx' by
accident, then modified it for the iteration later.

Fix it to iterate the users of the correct chanctx, i.e.
'ctx->replace_ctx'.

Ultimately, this issue led to a crash in a hwsim test
(multi_ap_wps_shared_apdev_csa) because it would actually
do the switch (rather than refuse here) and then later
have a double-free of the original chanctx, because it
was still in use by another interface yet freed as part
of the switching.
