I think we want to phrase this as using a scan window as large as the scan interval to trigger a full duty / continuous scan. Just to be a bit more clearer.

And I know you try to optimize the cpu_to_le16 out here, but honestly I would prefer this:

	cp.scan_window = cpu_to_le16(hdev->le_scan_interval);
