No connection with libertas and broadcom adapters: failure installing additional IEs for scanning

Since version 2.10 no connections with libertas cards are possible anymore.
Root cause is that the wpa_supplicant tries to install additional IEs for scanning while the driver does not support this.
Please use the patch from here:
