Subject: [PATCH 1/4] mac80211: dont add BSS when creating IBSS

There's no need to create a BSS struct only to pass it to
ieee80211_sta_join_ibss, so refactor this function into
__ieee80211_sta_join_ibss which takes all the relevant
paramters, and ieee80211_sta_join_ibss which takes a BSS
struct (used when joining an IBSS that already has other
members).

I think the use of the internal prefix "__" is a little deceptive in th=
is case. But this is only cosmetic.
