Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Revert "wl1251: enforce changed hw encryption support on monitor state change"
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2014 03:09:52 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1398125395-5579-2-git-send-email-notasas@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1398125395-5579-1-git-send-email-notasas@gmail.com>

This reverts commit b90a1165a72fabdc260abaa9eeadcbfd29e267eb.

That commit (or rather, hack) triggers a scary WARN in IBSS (ad-hoc) mode.
Steps to reproduce:
    ifconfig wlan0 down
    iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc
    ifconfig wlan0 up
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 905 at kernel/workqueue.c:1400 __queue_work+0x21c/0x2f4()

[<bf099a70>] (ieee80211_hw_config [mac80211])
...
This happens because ieee80211_connection_loss() is not expected to be
called in IBSS mode (mac80211 ends up queuing uninitialized work
in that case).
