Only valuable data we have is on above bugzilla report:
- messages with IWL_DEBUG_SCAN and some other flags:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=476229
- wireshark capture:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=476614

There is lots of ubuntu users discussion here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/621265?comments=all 
Most important information there is that removing plcp check
and/or not using NetworkManager helps (both triggers scans).
