Subject: [PATCH 4.5 122/200] mwifiex: fix IBSS data path issue.

4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: chunfan chen <jeffc@...vell.com>

commit dc386ce76dedaeeaaf006fceb6ed8cf2e20ff026 upstream.

The port_open flag is not applicable for IBSS mode. IBSS data
path was broken when port_open flag was introduced.
This patch fixes the problem by correcting the checks.

Fixes: 5c8946330abfa4c ("mwifiex: enable traffic only when port is open")
