nl80211 provides the NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR for every scan
request that should be randomized; the absence of such a flag means we
should not randomize. However, mwifiex was stashing the latest
randomization request and *always* using it for future scans, even those
that didn't set the flag.
Let's zero out the randomization info whenever we get a scan request
without NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR. I'd prefer to remove
priv->random_mac entirely (and plumb the randomization MAC properly
through the call sequence), but the spaghetti is a little difficult to
unravel here for me.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
