It is observed that sometimes Tx packet is downloaded without
adding driver's txpd header. This results in firmware parsing
garbage data as packet length. Sometimes firmware is unable
to read the packet if length comes out as invalid. This stops
further traffic and timeout occurs.
The root cause is uninitialized fields in tx_info(skb->cb) of
packet used to get garbage values. In this case if
MWIFIEX_BUF_FLAG_REQUEUED_PKT flag is mistakenly set, txpd
header was skipped. This patch makes sure that tx_info is
correctly initialized to fix the problem.

On PCIe Tx data path, network interface specific tx_info
parameters such as bss_num and bss_type are saved at
"skb->cb + sizeof(dma_addr_t)" (returned by MWIFIEX_SKB_TXCB).
Later mwifiex_map_pci_memory() called from
mwifiex_pcie_send_data() will memcpy
sizeof(struct mwifiex_dma_mapping) bytes to save PCIe DMA
address and length information at beginning of skb->cb.
This accidently overwrites bss_num and bss_type saved in skb->cb
previously because bss_num/bss_type and mwifiex_dma_mapping data
overlap.
Similarly, on PCIe Rx data path, rx_info parameters overlaps
with PCIe DMA address and length information too.
Fix it by defining mwifiex_cb structure and having
MWIFIEX_SKB_TXCB and MWIFIEX_SKB_RXCB return the correct address
of tx_info/rx_info using the structure members.
Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON to maks sure that mwifiex_cb structure
doesn't exceed the size of skb->cb.

In case of legacy scan, adapter->curr_cmd is guranteed to be
non-NULL in check_next_scan_cmd. This may not be case in
extended scan where scan command response would come earlier and
set curr_cmd to NULL. Extended scan event comes later and while
trying to complete IOCTL for scan, driver would crash in
dereferencing adapter->curr_cmd->wait_q_enabled.
Avoid this by completing IOCTL in case of legacy scans only.
Internal scan would be completed while handling extended scan
command response.
