@Leff Scanning always available is an option that could keep wifi on all the time. It is in advanced wifi settings as @Robertods88 said.

I know it's a Lollipop BUG. if u use LTE/3G/2G Data and u've wifi closed.

It replicates wifi use, but u're using DATA

Someone who could post something more elaborate to explain this bad situation ?

Do you have location services turned on with Wifi Assistance. If you do that's why it never turns off.
