Subject: rtlwifi: rtl8192se: Fix module parameter initialization

From: Larry Finger <[email protected]>

commit 7503efbd82c15c4070adffff1344e5169d3634b4 upstream.

Two of the module parameter descriptions show incorrect default values. In addition the value for software encryption is not transferred to the locations used by the driver.
