Since you're not tracing "req" (right now), could you please use
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and define a common class for this and some others
that only have local and sdata?

and use the local_only_evt class here, cf. drv_start() for example.

ditto.


Also -- no API tracers for results/stopped?

Hmm, that seems like an implementation detail of the driver in this
case. I'd rather not do this here, other drivers might not have a
special filter they need for scheduled scans.

Good catch, I should've thought of that in the remain-on-channel stuff,
would've saved me some debugging :)

I'm still not convinced that this is right.

Nor this I guess, though we don't use this much of course.

Not freeing it when the driver callback fails?

Seems like you should reorder:
	ret = drv...();
	if (ret == 0) {
		... = true;
		goto out;
	}
out_free:
	...
out:
	...
