To be very honest I went back and forth about the "abort" information
so I don't remember exactly what was supposed to be implemented. The
current implementation forwards to userspace the reason (whether the
scan was finished or was aborted for an external reason). So it is
implemented this way:

* Patch 6/6 adds in mac802154/scan.c:

+       cmd = aborted ? NL802154_CMD_ABORT_SCAN : NL802154_CMD_SCAN_DONE;
+       nl802154_scan_done(wpan_phy, wpan_dev, cmd);

* And in patch 1/6, in ieee802154/nl802154.c:

+static int nl802154_send_scan_msg(struct cfg802154_registered_device *rdev,
+                                 struct wpan_dev *wpan_dev, u8 cmd)
+{
[...]
+
+       ret = nl802154_prep_scan_msg(msg, rdev, wpan_dev, 0, 0, 0, cmd);

Is this working for you?

Thanks,
Miquèl
