staging: wfx: fix potential dead lock between join and scan
The device disallows to start a scan request between hif_join() and hif_set_bss_params(). The driver is not protected against that. The worst case happens when association is aborted and hif_set_bss_params() never happens. mac80211 would never ask for scan during the association process. So, this patch just aborts the association in progress when scan is requested.
