Hello Felix

I replaced mac80211 and hostapd from AA tree by the ones from your git
and recompiled a new image.
The problem with adhoc and wpa that i described no longer happens and
both routers are able to communicate with each other with regardless of
which one starts or restarts the network; the wifi interface or reboots.

This problem is solved with the provided solution.

There is still something that also changed and maybe is related to part
of the described problem above.

mac80211.git also does not output the mac address to the wireless config.
