iwlwifi: fix scan abort
commit d28232b461b8d54b09e59325dbac8b0913ce2049 upstream. Fix possible double priv->mutex lock introduced by commit a69b03e941abae00380fc6bc1877fb797a1b31e6 "iwlwifi: cancel scan watchdog in iwl_bg_abort_scan" . We can not call cancel_delayed_work_sync(&priv->scan_check) with priv->mutex locked because workqueue function iwl_bg_scan_check() take that lock internally. We do not need to synchronize when canceling priv->scan_check work. We can avoid races (sending double abort command or send no command at all) using STATUS_SCAN_ABORT bit. Moreover current iwl_bg_scan_check() code seems to be broken, as we should not send abort commands when currently aborting.
