Yes, I believe it would if anyone is still using WEP. My plan is to get rid of 
the try_then_request_module() there as well, and for completeness, I plan to 
restore usage of the lib80211 routines for TKIP as well.

Once I get a chance to test the TKIP and WEP changes, I plan to have a set of 4 
patches to switch the driver to using lib80211 routines for all 
decryption/encryption.
