Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 This patch was mentioned in "Wi-Fi* Simple Config (WSC) Linux* Reference
 Implementation" from http-www3.intel.com/cd/ids/developer/asmo-
 na/eng/247741.htm

 Simple Config (offical name: Wi-Fi Protected Setup) requires some special
 Information Elements to establish secured connection in its (app-level)
 protocol, therefore, this #517 patch is essential to allow WPS function
 properly.

 I suppose in the future, some other protocols may also take advantage of
 this feature in the similar fashion.

 Enjoy.
