Subject: [PATCH v3] mac80211: Support on-channel scan option.

From: Ben Greear <greearb@...delatech.com>

This based on an idea posted by Stanislaw Gruszka,
though I accept full blame for the implementation!

This is compile-tested only at this point.

The idea is to let users scan on the current operating
channel without interrupting normal traffic more than
absolutely necessary (changing power level might reset
some hardware, for instance).

Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@...delatech.com>

v3:  Fix up formatting as requested.
     Add call to notify driver scan is starting
     (Scan complete logic notifies scan is complete already.)
