Repeating my same message from the ath11k patch:

You are convoluting two different data structures.

struct ath12k_wmi_scan_req_arg is used to represent a scan request
within the host driver. This does not use the WMI_SCAN_XXX macros.

struct wmi_start_scan_cmd is used to represent the scan request command
sent to firmware. This struct uses the WMI_SCAN_XXX macros to fill some
members of this struct in ath12k_wmi_copy_scan_event_cntrl_flags().

So your change has no effect on the driver operation and incorrectly
tries to foist the firmware definition upon the host internal
representation.

So NAK to this patch.
