s/MICAEL/MICHAEL/

add hard stop

Also suggest you include (or summarize) the information that Kalle
shared that ath is the outlier here:

Further investigation shows that ath11k and ath12k are the only who use
'depends on' with CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC:

./drivers/net/wireless/intel/ipw2x00/Kconfig: select CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC
./drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/Kconfig: select CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC
./drivers/net/wireless/intersil/orinoco/Kconfig: select CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC
./drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/Kconfig: depends on CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC
./drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/Kconfig: depends on CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC
./drivers/staging/rtl8192e/Kconfig: select CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC
./drivers/staging/ks7010/Kconfig: select CRYPTO_MICHAEL_MIC

consider these comments apply to ath12k change as well :)

BTW I can add these changes in the pending branch, no need to resend
because of this.

Works for me. Had a few things come up and hadn't circled back here yet.

Thanks,
