[PATCH] ipw2200: disallow direct scanning when device is down
The function ipw_request_direct_scan() should bail out when the device is down. This fixes a lockup caused by wpa_supplicant triggering ipw_request_direct_scan() while the driver was in a middle of a reset due to firmware errors. Thanks to Zilvinas Valinskas for reporting the bug and helping me debug it.
