+This is a port of commit
+91ed19f5f66a7fe544f0ec385e981f43491d1d5a
+for 2.6.29.
+
+Without this after scanning your device will set
+the association ID to something bogus and what is
+being reported is multicast/broadcast frame are not
+being received. For details see this bug report:
+
+https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=498502
+
+>From the original commit:
+
+So that a new created IBSS network
+doesn't break on the first scan.
+
+It seems to Sujith and me that this
+stupid code unnecessary, too.
+
+So remove it...
