For me not.
I use 3945ABG card in an ad-hoc network with 4 other wlan devices
like rt2500 and ath5k.
I have applied your
0001-iwlwifi-only-check-for-association-id-when-associat.patch
patch. But i can't see incoming packets witch tcpdump.
I have try to commet out  the check for associat with the same
result. 

dmesg
iwl3945: I iwl3945_rx_handle r = 76, i = 75, REPLY_3945_RX, 0x1b
iwl3945: I iwl3945_rx_handle r = 77, i = 76, REPLY_3945_RX, 0x1b
