In order to allow user space based control of background scan interval,
we use available debugfs infrastructure. The feature has been added for
testing purposes. The user has to write the bgscan interval (in secs) to
the bgscan_interval file in ath6kl debug directory. To disable bgscan,
a '0' is to be written to the bgscan_interval file.
Example:
echo "2" > bgscan_interval
This will make the background scan interval as 2 seconds
