Unable to associate using NDIS driver to WPA/WPA2 APs post 2009/03/26

From: Keith White <kwhite_at_site.uottawa.ca>
Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2009 09:50:49 -0400 (EDT)
The platform is an msi wind U100 using an NDIS driver for the onboard rt2860.

This has worked well, both at home with WPA2-PSK and at work with
WPA2-EAP, until recently [post 2009/03/26?].  It stopped working
with the recent changes to if_ndis and net80211.

My current workaround is to use older versions of wlan.ko and
if_ndis.ko, but that's not going to continue forever...

ident differences between working and current versions:
