The result is:

55a00b83339f25d2979b85ab6e2151390327db80 is first bad commit

    cfg80211: don't overwrite privacy setting

    When cfg80211 is instructed to connect, it always
    uses the default WEP key for the privacy setting,
    which clearly is wrong when using wpa_supplicant.
    Don't overwrite the setting, and rely on it being
    false when wpa_supplicant is not running, instead
    set it to true when we have keys.

I verified the result by manually reverting the commit and this is
really causing my problem. My current setup is debian unstable,
default debian wpa_supplicant (using wext I think, haven't checked)
and open network at Portland Marriott hotel. I can reproduce the
problem every time.
