[PATCH v2] staging: wfx: fix coherency of hif_scan() prototype

[Jerome Pouiller]

From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@silabs.com>

The function hif_scan() return the timeout for the completion of the
scan request. It is the only function from hif_tx.c that return another
thing than just an error code. This behavior is not coherent with the
rest of file. Worse, if value returned is positive, the caller can't
make say if it is a timeout or the value returned by the hardware.

Uniformize API with other HIF functions, only return the error code and
pass timeout with parameters.

I have already send this patch some time ago  but it seems it has been
forgotten in the merges. It is a good news because I have found a bug
inside. So this is the v2.

v2:
  Fix "if (*timeout)" instead of "if (timeout)" in hif_scan() (that led
  to unexpected scan timeouts)
