Dan Williams (1):
     prism54: correct assignment of DOT1XENABLE in WE-19 codepaths
Where did this spring from ?
I see no posting of this patch let alone
an ACK.
The patch is also doing rather more than the description -
It is inserting extra breaks into a switch statement with
no comment as to why.
Dan posted it to linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org on 13 Feb 2007.
The description in the body is quoted below:
It was also posted to stable@kernel.org and accepted for 2.6.19 and
2.6.20.

Dan
	Correct assignment of DOT1XENABLE in WE-19 codepaths.
	RX_UNENCRYPTED_EAPOL = 1 really means setting DOT1XENABLE _off_, and
	vice versa.  The original WE-19 patch erroneously reversed that.  This
	patch fixes association with unencrypted and WEP networks when using
	wpa_supplicant.
	
	It also adds two missing break statements that, left out, could result
	in incorrect card configuration.
	
	Please commit to both development and stable branches.

Hth...
