ath6kl: Store scan request info in-advance before sending SCAN request
In current code, Scan request info is recorded in vif->scan_req after sending SCAN request to the firmware in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan(). In some corner cases, firmware sends SCAN_COMPLETE event immediately when it receives SCAN request, which internally executes scan complete event handler ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event() first. So, Scan completion handler will a get a chance to executed even before storing scan request info in ath6kl_cfg80211_scan(). Scan completion handler never report SCAN_COMPLETE event to cfg80211 if scan request info(vif->scan_req) is NULL. This leads to scan failure issue ("Device or resource busy error") during next SCAN request from the user space. This patch ensures that scan request info is stored before sending SCAN request.
