Hello,

Patch "cfg80211: fix SME connect" breaks my setup (WPA2/AES-CCMP between my b43 card and my AP).

When the patch is applied, the usual kernel messages "direct probe" and "authenticate" never happen, and IP address adquisition via dhcp fails:

[   12.709769] b43-phy0 debug: Chip initialized
[   12.725621] b43-phy0 debug: PIO initialized
[   12.733015] b43-phy0 debug: QoS disabled
[   12.913516] b43-phy0 debug: Wireless interface started
[   13.021170] b43-phy0 debug: Adding Interface type 2

When the patch is reverted everything works again:

[   13.222940] b43-phy0 debug: Chip initialized
[   13.291359] b43-phy0 debug: PIO initialized
[   13.330116] b43-phy0 debug: QoS disabled

Any clues?

Thanks,
Albert
