So I've opted for compat-wireless-2.6 way, and as my first concern was
to see if cw_min is being set correctly I've immediately come across an
issue here:

conf_tx (called from ieee80211_sta_set_ssid) is being called before
IEEE80211_SDATA_OPERATING_GMODE flag is set/cleared (which is done in
ieee80211_rx_mgmt_assoc_resp). That means conf_tx will use cw_min
parameters from previous association, so when you switch between B and G
APs, you will end up with wrong cw_min.

Shouldn't conf_tx better be called only/also after association finishes?
 Or should the IEEE80211_SDATA_OPERATING_GMODE flag be set prior to
auth/assoc based on previous beacon/probe response info?

Regards,
 Vlado
