Merge branch 'wireless-2.6' into wireless-next-2.6
Patch "iwlwifi: work around passive scan issue" was merged into wireless-2.6, but touched a lot of code since modified (and moved) in wireless-next-2.6. This caused some conflicts. Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-scan.c Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>
