3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Simon Wunderlich <simon.wunderl...@s2003.tu-chemnitz.de>
commit b78a4932f5fb11fadf41e69c606a33fa6787574c upstream.
The check whether the IBSS is active and can be removed should be
performed before deinitializing the fields used for the check/search.
Otherwise, the configured BSS will not be found and removed properly.
To make it more clear for the future, rename sdata->u.ibss to the
local pointer ifibss which is used within the checks.
This behaviour was introduced by
f3209bea110cade12e2b133da8b8499689cb0e2e
