This patch doesn't apply.
Oh, linville merged stuff on the 25th. That's the day I updated
my tree to do this patch. But seems like I did it just before
the merge.
Who could suspect that linville merges something. :D
*me runs away*
Anyway. Here's an updated patch.
NACK this version. It applied correctly, but introduced a new problem. My device occasionally gets
deauthentication messages from my AP.Preciously, it would do a scan or two, and then reauthenticate.
After your patch was applied, it never stops scanning.
The "normal" sequence is
kernel: SoftMAC: Received deauthentication packet from 00:14:bf:85:49:fa, but
that network is unknown.
kernel: SoftMAC: Associate: Scanning for networks first.
kernel: SoftMAC: Start scanning with channel: 1
kernel: SoftMAC: Scanning 14 channels
kernel: bcm43xx: set security called, .enabled = 0, .encrypt = 0
kernel: bcm43xx: set security called, .enabled = 0, .encrypt = 0
kernel: bcm43xx: set security called, .level = 0, .enabled = 0, .encrypt = 0
kernel: bcm43xx: set security called, .level = 0, .enabled = 0, .encrypt = 0
kernel: bcm43xx: set security called, .level = 0, .enabled = 0, .encrypt = 0

kernel: SoftMAC: Cannot associate without being authenticated, requested
authentication
kernel: SoftMAC: Sent Authentication Request to 00:14:bf:85:49:fa.
kernel: SoftMAC: Open Authentication completed with 00:14:bf:85:49:fa

kernel: SoftMAC: associated!
kernel: bcm43xx: set security called, .active_key = 0, .level = 2, .enabled = 1,
With your patch:

that network is unknown.

This pattern repeats until the network is brought down and back up.
