--- Comment #17 from Mathias Tillman (master.homer@gmail.com) ---
To make a long story short, I've managed to figure it out: the latest firmware
actually fixes it, but for some reason it's not actually loaded on to the
controller until I shut down the computer and leave it off for around 10
seconds or so. A simple reboot isn't enough for it to load the new firmware.

I verified this by doing a cold boot with the distro firmware, copying over the
new firmware then rebooting several times. None of these times was the LE Set
Extended Scan Parameters reported as being supported. I then shut down the
computer and turned it on again after roughly 10 seconds, and after that the
command was reported. I then copied over the distro firmware, rebooted several
times and it was still working. Turned off the computer and on again, and it no
longer worked.

So aside from that odd firmware loading requiring a cold boot, it seems to be
working as expected without a patched kernel.

Thanks for the replies everyone, and sorry for all of the long-winded messages.
I will be marking this as resolved now.
