Subject: [055/145] rndis_wlan: handle NL80211_AUTHTYPE_AUTOMATIC

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

----------------
From: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@...et.fi>

commit 634a555ce3ee5ea1fdcaee8b4ac9ce7b54f301ac upstream.

rndis_wlan didn't know about NL80211_AUTHTYPE_AUTOMATIC and simple
setup with 'iwconfig wlan essid no-encrypt' would fail (ENOSUPP).

v2: use NDIS_80211_AUTH_AUTO_SWITCH instead of _OPEN.
    This will make device try shared key auth first, then open.
