Subject: [PATCH 30/55] staging: wfx: firmware already handle powersave mode
 during scan

From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@...abs.com>

When user try to launch scan while connected, it is necessary to notify
the AP that we cannot receive data (using power save mode).

Firmware already handles this automatically so the code in the driver is
redundant and can be dropped.

By edge effect, hack of scan status in wfx_set_pm() is now useless.
