Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: don't set privacy w/o key
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 09:00:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1253775657.3868.8.camel@johannes.local> (raw)

When wpa_supplicant is used to connect to open networks,
it causes the wdev->wext.keys to point to key memory, but
that key memory is all empty. Only use privacy when there
is a default key to be used.
