2.6.39-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Johannes Berg <[email protected]>

commit 5306c0807491e891125f4fb08b04340c91530f57 upstream.

When an interface changes type to a P2P type,
iwlagn will erroneously set vif->type to the
P2P type and not the reduced/split type. Fix
this by keeping "newtype" in another variable
for the assignment to vif->type.
