In ath9k we make sure the following two things
*if the first interface is ADHOC we cannot have any other interface.
*we cannot add an ADHOC interface if there is already an interface
is present.

-	if ((ah->opmode == NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC) ||
-	    ((vif->type == NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC)&&
-	     sc->nvifs>  0)) {
-		ath_err(common, "Cannot create ADHOC interface when other"
-			" interfaces already exist.\n");
+	if ((ah->opmode == NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC)&&  (sc->nvifs>  0)) {
+		ath_err(common, "Cannot create any other interface when an ADHOC interface already exists.\n");
+		ret = -EINVAL;
+		goto out;
+	}

+	if ((vif->type == NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC)&&  (sc->nvifs>  0)) {
+		ath_err(common, "Cannot create ADHOC interface when other interfaces already exist.\n");

You could just remove the entire check since the interface combinations
you advertise don't allow it, I think? Or just fix those
combinations :-)

i did not check this before, thanks a lot for your inputs. will send a proper v2 after checking this out.
