wfx_scan_complete() do nothing with argument hif_ind_scan_cmpl. In add,
hif_ind_scan_cmpl come from hardware API and is not expected to be used
with upper layers of the driver.

The device provides an API to abort a scan request. Expose this feature
to mac80211.

mac80211 specification does not forbid hw_scan() to call
ieee80211_scan_completed(). However, from userspace point of view, not
all applications support this behavior. In particular, the code of iw
contains a big fat warning:
/*
* This code has a bug, which requires creating a separate
* nl80211 socket to fix:
* It is possible for a NL80211_CMD_NEW_SCAN_RESULTS or
* NL80211_CMD_SCAN_ABORTED message to be sent by the kernel
* before (!) we listen to it, because we only start listening
* after we send our scan request.
[...]
* Alas, the kernel doesn't do that (yet).
*/
So, we have to avoid to call ieee80211_scan_completed() from hw_scan()
(it's a kind of unwritten rule).
This patch relocates the hw_scan() process to a work_struct to fix the
problem.

Scan requests from mac80211 must be splitted in a few hardware requests
(it is necessary to split channels with active scan and channels with
passive scan). Current code schedules a work_struct for each hardware
request and one delayed_work to handle scan timeout.
It is far simpler to run send all the hardware requests synchronously
and replace delayed_work with a simple wait_for_completion_timeout().

If scan fails, status is returned in hif_ind_scan_cmpl. hif_scan
always return a success. So, we can simplify the code.

There are no real reason to modify the data received from device. So,
let's mark the arguments constant.

Chip can make foreground scan or background, but both can't be mixed in
same request. So, we need to split each mac80211 requests into multiple
HIF requests.
