Subject: iwinfo: avoid creating tmp.* ifaces for scanning
X-Git-Tag: reboot~6416
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b84346e141eb29aa4c4da5fec0930940b8636cf6;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Flynxis.git

iwinfo: avoid creating tmp.* ifaces for scanning

If the iface to scan on already is in ad-hoc, station or monitor mode
then do not spawn a temporary iface.

Also preventively disable IPv6 on temporary ifaces before bringing them
up to avoid potential security issues.
