Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2014 20:01:50 +0100 From: Ben Hutchings <ben@...adent.org.uk> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, stable@...r.kernel.org CC: akpm@...ux-foundation.org, "Johannes Berg" <johannes.berg@...el.com>, "Krzysztof Hałasa" <khalasa@...p.pl> Subject: [PATCH 3.2 016/125] mac80211: fix IBSS join by initializing last_scan_completed 3.2.61-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Krzysztof Hałasa <khalasa@...p.pl> commit c7d37a66e345df2fdf1aa7b2c9a6d3d53846ca5b upstream. Without this fix, freshly rebooted Linux creates a new IBSS instead of joining an existing one. Only when jiffies counter overflows after 5 minutes the IBSS can be successfully joined.
