cfg80211: always check for scan end on P2P device
If a P2P device wdev is removed while it has a scan, then the scan completion might crash later as it is already freed by that time. To avoid the crash always check the scan completion when the P2P device is being removed for some reason. If the driver already canceled it, don't want and free it, otherwise warn and leak it to avoid later crashes. In order to do this, locking needs to be changed away from the rdev mutex (which can't always be guaranteed). For now, use the sched_scan_mtx instead, I'll rename it to just scan_mtx in a later patch. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
