ath9k: remove incompatible IBSS interface check in change_iface
'cfg80211: fix interface combinations' ensures that if an interface type is not advertised by the driver in any of the interface combinations (via ieee80211_iface_combination) then it shall be treated as a single incompatible interface. if there are more than one interfaces present and changing them to incompatible interface type is not possible. These checks will be properly handled by cfg80211_change_iface -> cfg80211_can_change_interface. this patch is dependent on 'cfg80211: fix interface combinations' Signed-off-by: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mohammed@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
