mac80211: perform scan cancel in hw reset work
Move ieee80211_scan_cancel() and all other related code to ieee80211_restart_work() as ieee80211_restart_hw() is intended to be callable from any context. Fix a bug that RTNL lock is not taken during ieee80211_cancel_scan(). Take local->mtx before WARN(test_bit(SCAN_HW_SCANNING, &local->scanning) to prevent the race condition with __ieee80211_start_scan() described here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=128516716810537&w=2 Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
