The change log should describe the patch so we don't have to read
the code to know what it does. Idealy it would describe the user
visible effects of the code, but neither you nor I really know what
those are.

Here is a better changelog. Please resend with this or something
similar.

Subject: [PATCH v2] Staging: rtl8187se: remove check for IW_ENCODE_DISABLED

The original code had a no-op stub where it checked if
IW_ENCODE_DISABLED and did nothing. Then in a cleanup patch we
accidentally turned the check on. That was: de171bd6ff "Staging:
rtl8187se: r8180_wx: fixed a lot of checkpatch.pl issues".

The check should just be removed.
