[patch 14/16] ipw2100: send WEXT scan events

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com>

patch d20c678a450a25c1c12925f60c1b4cc040acc17d in mainline

ipw2100 wasn't sending WEXT scan events at all on scan completion.  And
like ipw2200, the driver aggressively auto-scans, requiring
non-user-requested scan events to be batched together and sent at
specific intervals instead of many times per seconds.
