4 Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: remove setting IBSS mode when stopping AP
5
6 Upon stopping an AP interface the driver disable INFRA mode effectively
7 setting the interface in IBSS mode. However, this may affect other
8 interfaces running in INFRA mode. For instance, if user creates and stops
9 hostap daemon on virtual interface, then association cannot work on
10 primary interface because default BSS has been set to IBSS mode in
11 firmware side. The IBSS mode should be set when cfg80211 changes the
12 interface.
