Due to the previous commit, when a scan finishes, it is in theory
possible to hit the following sequence:
1. interface starts being removed
2. scan is cancelled by driver and cfg80211 is notified
3. scan done work is scheduled
4. interface is removed completely, rdev->scan_req is freed,
event sent to userspace but scan done work remains pending
5. new scan is requested on another virtual interface
6. scan done work runs, freeing the still-running scan
To fix this situation, hang on to the scan done message and block
new scans while that is the case, and only send the message from
the work function, regardless of whether the scan_req is already
freed from interface removal. This makes step 5 above impossible
and changes step 6 to be
5. scan done work runs, sending the scan done message
As this can't work for wext, so we send the message immediately,
but this shouldn't be an issue since we still return -EBUSY.

When an interface/wdev is removed, any ongoing scan should be
cancelled by the driver. This will make it call cfg80211, which
only queues a work struct. If interface/wdev removal is quick
enough, this can leave the scan request pending and processed
only after the interface is gone, causing a use-after-free.
Fix this by making sure the scan request is not pending after
the interface is destroyed. We can't flush or cancel the work
item due to locking concerns, but when it'll run it shouldn't
find anything to do. This leaves a potential issue, if a new
scan gets requested before the work runs, it prematurely stops
the running scan, potentially causing another crash. I'll fix
that in the next patch.
This was particularly observed with P2P_DEVICE wdevs, likely
because freeing them is quicker than freeing netdevs.

___cfg80211_scan_done() can be called in some cases
(e.g. on NETDEV_DOWN) before the low level driver
notified scan completion (which is indicated by
passing leak=true).
Clearing rdev->scan_req in this case is buggy, as
scan_done_wk might have already being queued/running
(and can't be flushed as it takes rtnl()).
If a new scan will be requested at this stage, the
scan_done_wk will try freeing it (instead of the
previous scan), and this will later result in
a use after free.
Simply remove the "leak" option, and replace it with
a standard WARN_ON.

The reason is that, in connect result event cfg80211 unholds
the BSS to which the device is associated (and was held so
far). So, for the event with status successful, when cfg80211
wants to get that BSS from the device's BSS list it gets a
NULL BSS because the BSS has been expired and unheld already.
Fix it by reshuffling the code.
