3.5.7.5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>
commit fa4cffcba9e13798ed7c6b8526b91b1631ecb53e upstream.
We do not correctly change interface type when switching from IBSS mode to STA mode, that results in microcode errors.
