The symptom would be fragments of 802.11 header showing up in the ethernet header because of skb header offsets being corrupted by MadWifi devices on lower ports which then get forwarded as-is to wired ports.
Sorry for the lame explanation, but the short end of the story is that you have to copy the skb before you modify it if you are going to play nice with bridging.

I've fixed the logic so that multicast is dropped, with an error when disabled. I don't think this is a valid configuration. Also, we don't skip the filtering logic so that our own multicast traffic doesn't come back to us (looking like a bridging loop).

NETDEV_TX_BUSY (they might also return negative errno values as well,
like -ENETDOWN)

Added MAC_FMT & MAC_ADDR macros that can be used as a drop-in

therefore the rate adaptation does not take place.

It's called with NULL vap in several places, and the old
ath_beacon_config() had such protection. Without this check, the kernel
panics after association in managed mode.

arguments are boolean.
Originally the arguments were converted to booleans, but r2345 removed
this conversion. I've added the conversion to booleans back again and
removed the use of XOR as it's confusing and unnecessary.

IRQF_SHARED appeared in Linux 2.6.18. Define it in compat.h for older

branch to trunk. especially notable is, that due to improved nexttbtt (next
"target beacon transmit time") calculation we will now get the correct backoff
behaviour for beacons, resulting in only one beacon per beacon interval (the
current head version will send N beacons for N stations in the beacon interval
because they are poorly synchronized). also because of the better timer
synchronization there is no more time lag of up to 1 minute until we see
beacons after a merge. thanks to benoit for figuring that out!
the difference between this patch and the version in the dfs-branch is that it
still uses self linked descriptors and uses the SWBA interrupt only for
updating the nexttbtt. this is necessary to recognize HW merges, for which we
don't get any notification by the hardware (see the thread "IBSS testing" on
this list for more details).
also i tried to clean up a bit, use a more descriptive function name for timer
updates (ath_beacon_update_timers instead of ath_beacon_config) and generally
better distingush between a HW merge and a SW merge.
