The diff to rip out the hw_scan callback is tiny, and since it'd need to
be worked on anyway to add notification when scanning is done,
IMHO it is little more work to remove the scan now and add it back in one patch
including the notification.

The driver calls ieee80211_scan_completed(), which is in stack and works so let's not rip out hw_scan.

To be fair, I still don't know what was being fixed by taking hw_scan out... auto-AP selection has never worked here whether I use hw_scan or mac80211's sw scan; I have to configure everything from userspace including channel, essid, channel, and bssid (essid might be optional; I haven't tried not including it)
