The patch make ipw2200 generate the scan event every time a scan has
completed, so that user space know when to get fresh results.
Dan Williams would like to go towards this model in Network Manager
rather than having to poll.

Fix ieee80211 TX code when using WPA+QOS. TKIP/CCMP will use

cannot ignore this field when doing host encryption and add the qos_ctl

I recently found that not all BIOS manufacturers are using the specified

specific IDs that I know about and added a module parameter that a user can
specify another HID to the probe list if their device isn't being found by the
default list.
