The wext internal chandefs for ibss should be created using the
cfg80211_chandef_create() functions. Otherwise the center_freq1 field
will not be set and cfg80211_chandef_valid() will spit a warning and
report the chandef as invalid when it should be used.

Thanks a lot, Simon, I don't see anymore traces here.

cfg80211: fix warning when using WEXT for IBSS
already fixed this. Your patch doesn't apply, but feel free to send me a
new one (for -next) converting to the creation helpers.

I tested the above commit and it also fixes the problems I noticed here.
