I agree with Holger that the conversion into being fully cfg80211
compliant is basically the only way to go forward. Especially since
Holger and Samuel are already have patches for it.

However from a different point, how can you try open mode first and
detect a failure. Isn't this suppose to be the other way around, try
shared first and then fall back to open?
