Subject: [PATCH v5 0/2] Stop scheduled scan if netlink client disappears

Hi,

v5:
- discarded the locking changes in v4
- instead of trying to schedule sched_scan_stop worker from
struct cfg80211_sched_scan_request, move the worker to wiphy
as that makes it easier to manage the sched_scan_stop worker.
There are also one scheduled scan / wiphy so it is also logical
to do it like this.

v4:
- rtnl locking issues fixed in patch 2

v3:
- backward compatibility define tweaked in patch 1
- added missing signed-off-by:

v2:
- split the patch
- In patch 1, use a generic NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER attribute and
convert the old code that uses NL80211_ATTR_IFACE_SOCKET_OWNER to
use the new value. A define is provided for backward compatibility.
- Any pending schedule scan stop worker is cancelled when interface is
taken down in patch 2

Cheers,
Jukka

An attribute NL80211_ATTR_SOCKET_OWNER can be set by the scan initiator.
If present, the attribute will cause the scan to be stopped if the client
dies.

This is racy, it'll probably cause crashes at some point.
