Thanks ! This almost works. The patch doesn't fix the problem as-is, but
I suspect it's just a typo in the direction of the comparison in the
check in nl80211_scan_common. If I flip the direction as attached, it
then works with the orginial patch + the modification applied to 2.10.
Great to hear!
One additional question (As i do not have the hardware): Does scan &
association
work with CONFIG_WNM enabled? As indicated in my last name, this broke
broadcom-wl
on 2.9, from my understanding the patch should also solve this.

Yes, it works. I can indeed reproduce the same problem on 2.10 if I set
the [m]scs flags to false in wpas_wpas_ext_capab_byte (which by itself
works) but turn on CONFIG_WNM=y, and then I get the same failure with
ie_len=6 getting passed down to cfg80211. With the patch on top it scans
and associates correctly with CONFIG_WNM=y (both with and without the
[m]scs flags).
Best,
Étienne.
