Did you test it?
Yes. I added my old can-scan-one patch on top of this
so that as soon as one station is associated the rest
of the hostap-generated scans can just scan the current channel. I
then bring up 100 or so virtual stations and they all scan
and do their thing...
I also tried some manual scans on a fixed frequency. Those
appeared to work, though I got scan results for APs on different
channels. Does that seem right? I can't see how my patch
would affect that sort of thing one way or another...
If you have some suggestions for other ways to test this
please let me know.

+ ieee80211_configure_filter(local); /* accept probe-responses */
+ /* We need to ensure power level is at max for scanning. */

a few blank lines would be nice :)
Sure, will do.

That formatting is a bit off it seems. Or is that just my mailer?
Well, it looked OK to me..though when I replied my mailer
certainly made it look funky. I'll re-run it through checkpatch
just in case.
Thanks,
Ben
