[patch 1/7] d80211: allow for hardware crypto of default keys

From: David Kimdon <hidden>
Date: 2006-12-07 00:45:01

Remove incorrect prohibition of hardware crypto support.  This was
originally present to prevent hardware crypto when more than one
station interface was created for a single hardware device, the code
in question is no longer correct and should be removed.
