2.6.25-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>

commit 48735d8d8bd701b1e0cd3d49c21e5e385ddcb077 upstream

If somebody sends an invalid beacon/probe response, that can trash the
whole BSS descriptor. The descriptor is, luckily, large enough so that
it cannot scribble past the end of it; it's well above 400 bytes long.
