Thanks! It took me a while to realize what this loop is doing.

Thanks for the review!

Greg, please do not apply this yet. After I sent out the patch, I
noticed the comment at the top of the function:

/*  Ported from 8185: IsInPreAuthKeyList(). (Renamed from SecIsInPreAuthKeyList(), 2006-10-13.) */

So I did a git grep to find the original function and fix it as well,
and it looks like there are three copies of the same function in
different files:

$ git grep IsInPreAuthKeyList
r8188eu/core/rtw_mlme.c:/*  Ported from 8185: IsInPreAuthKeyList(). (Renamed from SecIsInPreAuthKeyList(), 2006-10-13.) */
rtl8712/rtl871x_mlme.c: * Ported from 8185: IsInPreAuthKeyList().
rtl8723bs/core/rtw_mlme.c:/*  Ported from 8185: IsInPreAuthKeyList(). (Renamed from SecIsInPreAuthKeyList(), 2006-10-13.) */

I will later send a v2 patch that replaces all of them.

Thanks
