Applying the EDCA parameters in the hardware and sending "standard" WME IEs
(without EDCA parameter sets) is understandable, Linux does that too. 
But are you really sending EDCA parameters in IBSS mode within the WME IEs? 
After all, STAs in infrastructure don't do this either.

I don't understand why. If you apply the default EDCA parameters/QoS parameters
in the hardware, it shouldn't make a difference if you transmit EDCA parameters
in your beacons or not. I'm confused. :)
