When switch to connect to a new AP for station which is already connected
to an AP, the time cost is too long, it arrives 10 seconds.
The reason is when switch connection, disconnect operation happened on
the 1st AP, then 11d scan start command sent to firmware, and then a
new hw scan arrived for the 2nd AP. The 11d scan is running at this
moment, so the hw scan can not start immediately, it needs to wait
the 11d scan finished, it increased the time cost of switch AP and
even happened scan fail as log below after apply the incoming patch.
[ 1194.815104] ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: failed to start hw scan: -110
[ 1196.864157] ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: failed to start hw scan: -110
[ 1198.911926] ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: failed to start hw scan: -110
Change to set 11d state while disconnect, and the 11d scan will be
started after the new hw scan in ath11k_mac_op_hw_scan(). Then the
time cost of switching AP is small and not happened scan fail.
Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HSP.1.1-03125-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_LITE-3

Please think about this more, ignoring errors doesn't sound like a good
solution.

* [PATCH v2 2/2] wifi: ath11k: reduce the timeout value back for hw scan from 10 seconds to 1 second

For 11d scan, commit 9dcf6808b253 ("ath11k: add 11d scan offload support")
increased the timeout from one second to max 10 seconds when 11d scan
offload enabled and 6 GHz enabled, it is reasonable for the commit, it
is because the first 11d scan request is sent to firmware before the
first hw scan request after wlan load, then the hw scan started event
will reported from firmware after the 11d scan finished, it needs about
6 seconds when 6 GHz enabled, so increased it from one second to 10
seconds in the commit to avoid timed out for hw scan started. Then
another commit 1f682dc9fb37 ("ath11k: reduce the wait time of 11d scan
and hw scan while add interface") change the sequence of the first 11d
scan and hw scan, then ath11k will receive the hw scan started event
from firmware immediately for the first hw scan, thus ath11k does not
need set the timeout value to max 10 seconds again, and this is to set
the timeout value back from 10 seconds to 1 second.
