3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> commit ddfe49b42d8ad4bfdf92d63d4a74f162660d878d upstream. In case the AP has different regulatory information than we do, it can happen that we connect to an AP based on e.g. the world roaming regulatory data, and then update our database with the AP's country information disables the channel the AP is using. If this happens on an HT AP, the bandwidth tracking code will hit the WARN_ON() and disconnect. Since that's not very useful, ignore the channel-disable flag in bandwidth tracking.
