    Subject[patch 047/164] mac80211: fix handling of 4-address-mode in ieee80211_change_iface
    2.6.33-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org>

    commit f7917af92024d43bc20bc1afc92de27b0bd0f50b upstream.

    A misplaced interface type check bails out too early if the interface
    is not in monitor mode. This patch moves it to the right place, so that
    it only covers changes to the monitor flags.
