+ * listening, then send probe requests to each channel and wait for
+ * the responses. After all channels are scanned, tune back to the
+ * original channel and send a nullfunc frame with power save bit
+ * off to trigger the AP to send us all the buffered frames.

+ * Note that while local->sw_scanning is true everything else but
