Subject: ibss.c backtrace when batman-adv adds wireless interface

Hi All,

We've had a user report the backtrace below when loading batman-adv on
his machine.  It looks like the cfg80211 layer is complaining about a
null bss returned, but I cannot tell if the rtlwifi driver or
batman-adv is in error here.

Thoughts?

josh
