If the environment is noisy, the device may take time to send scan requests. Thus, scan requests durations > 5s have already been observed. During the scan, traffic is neither received, neither sent. From the user point-of-view, the traffic is frozen for a long time. This patch reworks the scan processing. It gives to the device a smaller time budget than previously. However, it does not expect the scan to be complete and it is able to send another scan request to finish the work. A big part of the patch aims to avoid an infinite loop if the device goes crazy.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
