Subject: [PATCH 04/31] staging: wfx: wait for SCAN_CMPL after a SCAN_STOP

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

When the device has finished a scan request, it send a scan complete
("SCAN_COMPL") indication. It is also possible to abort a scan request
with a "SCAN_STOP" message. A SCAN_COMPL is also send in this case.

The driver limits the delay to make a scan request. A timeout happens
almost never but is theoretically possible. Currently, if it happens
the driver does not wait for the SCAN_COMPL. Then, when the driver
starts the next scan request, the device may return -EBUSY (scan
requests often occur back-to-back).

This patch give a chance to the device to send a SCAN_COMPL after a scan
timeout.
