Last solution would be to remove this merging all together
Absolutely not! IBSS merge is per spec, otherwise you don't really have
a real IBSS.
I'm all for following spec and we've tried really hard to make it work.
Anyhow I'm not sure what you call real IBSS. nobody has checked it for
1.5 year this patch  is in and now is suddenly so important...
I don't care about your work around, I was replying due to your insane
comments about considering removing IBSS merge support because your
hardware does not support it well.
I would like to see if there is any  HW under mac80211 that actually
work with this.
Atheros hardware supports IBSS merge, please consider a proper work
around instead for hardware which does not support this.
