AR_RxKeyIdxValid will not be set for bcast/mcast frames and so relying
this status for MIC failed frames is buggy.
Due to this, MIC failure events for broadcast frames are not sent to
supplicant resulted in AP disconnecting the STA.
Able to pass Wifi Test case 5.2.18 with this fix.

Can you send an follow-on patch instead? Rebasing to is a PITA.

Can you please revert this patch and apply my v2 patch? My apologies
for the trouble...
I overlooked an issue in one place and for some reason my testing
also did not show any issue... Thanks to Felix for pointing this
issue..
Thanks
