From: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@xxxxxxxxxxx> The command buffer being passed to mwifiex_sta_prepare_cmd() is uninitialized and contains garbage data. As a result, some commands don't work properly. For example, while creating an adhoc network without security, the privacy bit in cap info is sometimes unnecessarily enabled. In this case adhoc-joiner creates new network with same SSID instead of joining the existing one assuming that it is in secure mode.
