A patch to enable IBSS (Ad-Hoc) mode

[Gasper Zejn-2]

Hi.

I'm new to this list and I'd like to submit a small patch I've been using to
enable adhoc mode with zd1211rw.

I've patched 2.6.25 and 2.6.26-rc4 with this and adhoc worked without any
serious problems. I used adhoc to connect to oslrd based mesh.

But ... I really haven't looked deeper so I might have done something wrong.

Regards,
Gasper Zejn
