I merged this patch from Jouni:

	commit e3a4cc2f073739c9c9c2e97efc774703061f034a
	Author: Jouni Malinen <j@xxxxx>
	Date:   Sun Oct 23 22:36:04 2011 +0300

	    mac80211: Fix TDLS support validation in add_station handler
    
	    We need to verify whether the command is successful before allocating
	    the station entry to avoid extra processing. This also fixes a memory
	    leak on the error path.

I'm not sure what to do with this patch now.  I think I will just drop
it, and you can send me a new patch that applies on top of Jouni's
(perhaps even reverting it) as appropriate?

Thanks,

John
