#6586: SCAN command fails, timer doesn't fire

In testing we've seen that sometimes the command queue gets full. This
shouldn't happen -- we set a timer to resubmit commands, and then reset
the device completely, when commands don't complete. But for some reason
it doesn't fire.
We think it's a SCAN command because when we unload the module, we get a
'SCAN failed' message as it's cancelled.
Obviously there's an underlying firmware bug, but there's also a driver
bug -- I don't understand why the timer isn't firing. Have added some
debugging messages when the timer is armed and cancelled; would like to
see debug output while this happens.
