mac80211: Fix IBSS merge
Currently, in IBSS mode, a single creator would go into a loop trying to merge/scan. This happens because the IBSS timer is rearmed on finishing a scan and the subsequent timer invocation requests another scan immediately. This patch fixes this issue by checking if we have just completed a scan run trying to merge with other IBSS networks. Signed-off-by: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
