As Johannes pointed out on IRC, this happens only if you used

iwconfig eth1 key s:11111
iwconfig eth1 essid MNHS

previously on the device. Seems that the CFG80211-configuration 
doesn't delete the WEXT-configuration remnants. And as soon as 
you "ifup" the device, it starts associating based on old WEXT 
data, resulting in the busy.
