rt2500usb: fallback to SW encryption for TKIP+AES
commit 75f64dd54a185150ebfc45e99351c890d4a2252f upstream.
HW crypto in rt2500usb does not seem to support keys with different ciphers,
which breaks TKIP+AES mode. Fall back to software encryption to fix it.
This should fix long-standing problems with rt2500usb and WPA, such as:
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4834
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=484888
Also tested that it does not break WEP, TKIP-only and AES-only modes.
