[21/39] hostap: Revert a toxic part of the conversion to net_device_ops

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

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

From: Martin Decky <martin@xxxxxxxx>

commit e484c16f6212f7f06407382efa4d3ad214b6c589 upstream.

As the hostap driver was converted to use net_device_ops, a mistake was
made in hostap_main.c (commit 5ae4efbcd2611562a8b93596be034e63495706a5).
Originally, the tx_queue_len was set to 0 for every other interface than
HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER, but the new fragment of code sets tx_queue_len to
0 only for HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER. The opposite of the previous
behavior makes the driver to drop all packets in AP mode.

Change the way 0 is assigned to tx_queue_len according to the original
logic.
