    mac80211: remove wep dependency · 3473187d
    John W. Linville authored
    The current mac80211 code assumes that WEP is always available.  If WEP
    fails to initialize, ieee80211_register_hw will always fail.
    
    In some cases (e.g. FIPS certification), the cryptography used by WEP is
    unavailable.  However, in such cases there is no good reason why CCMP
    encryption (or even no link level encryption) cannot be used.  So, this
    patch removes mac80211's assumption that WEP (and TKIP) will always be
    available for use.
