Subject: ath5k: enable hardware encryption for WEP
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9ad9a26e7b7b6671a9aefbb1edb2e8a9ed50ee8d;p=linux-beck.git

ath5k: enable hardware encryption for WEP

This change re-enables hardware encryption for ath5k after setting up
mac80211 to handle the initialization vectors which happens to make it
work.  Add a module param (nohwcrypt) to optionally turn it off.
