Hi John,

This is a pull request with one patch that fixes an issue faced by Linus.

David Spinadel helped me debugging this and it appears that the
firmware currently available doesn't support scheduled scan. So we
disable that for now.

I am sorry - but I am travelling right now and my connection to the
only computer that has my PGP signature is awfully slow...
Please pull. I'll try to sign a reply to this message as soon as I can.

Thanks,
