The script /etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/ifup-wireless has two kinds
of problems.

(1) Not all mainline drivers that use mac80211 are handled in the
    case statement that sets WPA_DRIVER. The effects are minimal;
    however, the user gets an unwarranted message that "WPA
    configured but may not be supported". The fix is to add all
    mac80211 drivers to the case statement.

(2) If there is a driver that does not use nl80211, the user will
    never get a connection, and is, therefore, more serious. The
    fix is to change the default to select the wext driver.

This problem was found while checking a driver that will soon be sent
the staging tree.
