Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix ibss scanning
Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2012 10:48:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121211094822.GA3262@redhat.com> (raw)

Do not scan on no-IBSS and disabled channels in IBSS mode. Doing this
can trigger Microcode errors on iwlwifi and iwlegacy drivers.

Also rename ieee80211_request_internal_scan() function since it is only
used in IBSS mode and simplify calling it from ieee80211_sta_find_ibss().

This patch should address:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=883414
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49411
