wpa_supplicant-0.6.3-dont-reschedule-specific-scans.patch:

commit 7e1488494e0150ee7fdef83355266b5633c5c1b0
Author: Dan Williams <dcbw at redhat.com>
Date:   Tue Jun 3 11:37:48 2008 +0300

    Do not continually reschedule specific scans to help finding hidden SSIDs
    
    In situations where the driver does background scanning and sends a
    steady stream of scan results, wpa_supplicant would continually
    reschedule the scan.  This resulted in specific SSID scans never
    happening for a hidden AP, and the supplicant never connecting to the AP
    because it never got found.  Instead, if there's an already scheduled
    scan, and a request comes in to reschedule it, and there are enabled
    scan_ssid=1 network blocks, let the scan happen anyway so the hidden
    SSID has a chance to be found.

    wext: don't overwrite BSS frequency
    
    mac80211 sends _both_ channel and frequency in it's scan results, with
    frequency first and channel second (it's since been fixed to send
    channel first and frequency second to work around this issue).  This
    results in wpa_supplicant getting the right value when the frequency
    comes, but overwriting the value with '0' when the channel comes because
    wpa_supplicant can't handle 5GHz channel numbers.  So if a valid
    previous SIOCGIWFREQ event came in, don't try to overwrite it.

    wext: handle mode switches correctly for mac80211
    
    Since mac80211 requires that the device be !IFF_UP to change the mode
    (and I think the old prism54 fullmac driver does too), do that.  This
    shouldn't harm fullmac devices since they can handle mode switches on
    the fly and usually don't care about up/down that much.
