I had a problem where doing an open after a close left the device
unusable. netif_carrier_on should be called whenever we go to the
associated state, but this is not so in case of a close->open sequence.
The following fixes this:

diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2100.c

        spin_unlock_irqrestore(&priv->low_lock, flags);
 
        return 0;
