May I know why channel switch should not go ahead while it is doing scan?
It lead channel switch fail sometimes.
For example, channel switch count is 10, then it has 10 becaons with
channel switch IE
in the 1 second, if it is doing a hw scan(time cost is more than 1
second) at that moment,
the channel switch of 10 beacons will not be handle, and lead channel
switch fail.
Currently it is changed like this in net/mac80211/mlme.c
ieee80211_sta_process_chanswitch(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata,
...
if (local->scanning)
return;
...
