[wpa_supplicant] Is there a way to limit peers (to about 12) for IBSS/adhoc?

Thanks.

I did not try 40 IBSS nodes without encryption. I am using software 
encryption for ath9k because of key caching issues discussed in below 
threads:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9381651/
https://github.com/cozybit/authsae/issues/42

This is a customer site in the field, our temporary work-around is to 
create 2 networks (each is with 20 nodes) by using different SSID.

Because this is customer site in the field, it is not convenient to 
change and test. Does it make sense to test without encryption, 
encryption is a MUST?
