From: Krzysztof Hałasa <khalasa@piap.pl>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit c7d37a66e345df2fdf1aa7b2c9a6d3d53846ca5b upstream.
Without this fix, freshly rebooted Linux creates a new IBSS instead of joining an existing one. Only when jiffies counter overflows after 5 minutes the IBSS can be successfully joined.
