I had the same issue with a 4.15 kernel. Decided to replace the MediaTek with a RealTek usb wifi adapter because I found a driver for that chipset where someone has already dealt with the 4.15 issue. The code looks like it isn't as much of a nightmare as well. But perhaps this could help come up with an easier solution. I simply don't have the time and resources to expend on learning how to fix this myself.

Instead of a boolean flag for an abort for the scan_done function there is a scan_info struct that needs to be thrown instead. Timings seem to be part of what is thrown through that if the issues are related.

The compiling RealTek driver: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8812au

Good luck!
