Wen Gong c2ebb1d11a wifi: ath12k: indicate to mac80211 scan complete with aborted flag for ATH12K_SCAN_STARTING state
Scan failure can not be recovered from when running a loop of the
following steps:
1. run scan: "iw wlan scan".
2. run command: echo assert > /sys/kernel/debug/ath12k/wcn7850\ hw2.0/simulate_fw_crash
   immediately after step 1.

result:
scan failed and can not recover even when wlan recovery succeeds:
command failed: Device or resource busy (-16)

reason:
When scan arrives, WMI_START_SCAN_CMDID is sent to the firmware and
function ath12k_mac_op_hw_scan() returns, then simulate_fw_crash arrives
and the scan started event does not arrive, and then it starts to do
recovery of wlan. __ath12k_mac_scan_finish() which is called from
ath12k_core_halt() is one step of recovery, it will not call
ieee80211_scan_completed() by logic currently because the scan state is
ATH12K_SCAN_STARTING. Thus it leads the scan not being completed in
mac80211, and leads all consecutive scans failing with -EBUSY in
nl80211_trigger_scan even after wlan recovery success.

Indicate scan complete with aborted flag to mac80211 for
ATH12K_SCAN_STARTING to allow recovery from scan failed with "Device or
resource busy (-16)" after wlan recovery.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
