Some laptop products are using Broadcom PCIE NIC(DELL, Macbook Air and
so on). Do you have access to any laptop? We can try to figure out
what's in there.

git clone https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap.git
drivers/net/wireless
Any scan request will be wrapped as an iovar and sent to the dongle.
Scan results are sent back to the driver as a dongle event.
Hope this can help.
