From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
There are only a few drivers that use HW scan, and
all of those don't need a non-idle transition before
starting the scan -- some don't even care about idle
at all. Remove the flag and code associated with it.

Actually I'm not 100% sure about wl1251, but I think if
it has a problem with that it can fix it in the hw_scan
callback?
