Do you know how the  TSF is actually synchronized from the HW perspective?

no, unfortuately i have no idea. also i should admit that we have problems 
with atheros hardware in that we don't know when the RX timestamp is taken 
exactly. this means our IBSS merge can't be 100% exact. but the usual case we 
need to catch is when the beacon TSF is much higher than the local TSF. 

i don't care about IBSS power-save right now.

with the same HW but it did not work any more - i didn't have the time to
investigate this issue...

There is another IBSS bug that was introduced connected to rates maybe
this is also your problem.. we have something in the pipe that should
solve this.

good, i'll retest once you subitted the patch.

Sure but if TSF is not adopted correctly and that's the case probably
of most of the drivers under mac80211 then it makes
worth.  Just need to be aware of this.

true, we need to find a way to support this hardware too...
