Change wpa_supplicant to down the interface at the start of the init routine.
wpa_supplicant expects that it has exclusive access to the net80211 state so when its starts poking in the WEP/WPA settings and the card is already scanning it can cause net80211 to try and associate incorrectly with a protected AP. This is an inconvenience for firmware based cards such as iwi where it can be sent an auth instruction with incomplete security info and cause a firmware error. Remove the 'ifconfig up' from network.subr since wpa_supplicant will immediately down the interface again. Reported by: Guy Helmer (and others) Reviewed by: sam, brooks, avatar MFC after: 3 days
