 right. Can you check the sc_in_scan value _during_ an ifconfig wlan0
 scan ? (ie, whilst it's running.)
 
 You'll have to be ninja-fast.
 
 I just want to verify that it's actually working..

 The above is just to verify that it's working. Once that's done, check
 sc_in_scan once the interface has hung.
 
 I'm testing the hypothesis that the scan logic is "hung" somehow and
 that is why the interface never comes out of STA power save mode.
