Perhaps. I chose this path only because it was simple to implement :) I'll take a look at the scan code in more detail and fix it there.
You're kinda right too, we want to disable the queues first, then set
sw_scanning/notify the driver, and then send the nullfunc, I think. So
it's either this patch, or iterating the interface list twice.

Similarly for the beacon disable part, that _needs_ to be done after
sw_scanning=true otherwise it won't actually work...

I think I prefer your patch over that complexity, but would like to have
a good comment explaining it, and possibly one in
scan.c:ieee80211_start_scan that points to that code.

I just sent v2. If you have time, please take a look and comment.
