How ipw3945 performs scan? From the patch, it looks like it switches
channels (and sends probe requests) in the firmware and delivers all
received beacons and probe responses through the normal rx path to be
handled in a software MAC layer. This is really weird behaviour and
doesn't make sense to me. Why isn't channel switching left to the
software MAC as well?

Why "set"? "ieee80211_scan_completed" sounds better.

Thanks,
