Subject: Regression in kernel-3.4-rcx with rtl8192ce

I'm using rtl8188ce in AP mode with hostapd, after upgrade to 3.4-rcx
kernel(tried 3.4-rc2,rc3 and latest source from wireless-next.git) I can't
connect to my AP.
AP Log:
Apr 16 23:31:39 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA d8:b3:cf:d1:a0:58 IEEE 802.11:
authenticated
Apr 16 23:31:39 localhost hostapd: wlan0: STA d8:b3:cf:d1:a0:58 IEEE 802.11:
Station sent an invalid association request

Tried disabling and enabling different options in hostapd.conf but with no
luck. With kernels-3.3.x it works just fine.
Thank you.

Try applying my patch "mac80211: fix truncated packets in cooked monitor
rx" - I had issues with AP mode in ath9k as well and fixed them with
that one.

Please bisect this using the wireless-testing git source. From what I remember,
there are no changes in the rtlwifi/rtl8192c/rtl8192ce that should affect this
situation.
