hostapd crashes with segfault when using RT5370. This is because the driver
reports Beacon RX prior to hostapd having completed the AP mode setup. This bug
is reported and fixed here:
http://hostap.epitest.fi/cgit/hostap/commit/?id=334ec001bbd31c5bc83d6593e58dfbbf6b8785a2

I changed the source and version in the hostapd package to the mentioned commit
on the git repository and everything works again. I don't think however that
this is the right way of fixing this. Should I make a patch and file this or
something? At least until hostapd is updated?
