turning off IBSS (with wext)

Hi,

so I was testing IBSS, and found this strange behaviour:

 * wpa_supplicant (or NM?) will try to do SIWMLME(disassoc) in IBSS
   mode, which seems kinda wrong. Why do we accept it? We send out a
   frame and then do nothing else.
 * Then I thought "iwconfig wlan1 essid off" - but that fails with
   -EINVAL due to ieee80211_sta_find_ibss

It seems to me that either one of those, or both, should actually turn
off beaconing.
