Please find attached Amitkumar's patch that addresses this issue. I tested it on my Chromebook.
If it works for you on XO-4 I will rebase both patches and resend to the list.

Here's how I can get scan_delay_timer_fn() trigged on my Chromebook:
0) boot up and switch to a shell console
1) stop wpasupplicant; stop shill # stop my Connection Manager
2) ifconfig mlan0 up
3) iwlist mlan0 scan & sleep 1; ifconfig mlan0 down

Thanks,
Bing
