Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Remove obsolete TKIP flexibility

The TKIP implementation was originally prepared to be a bit more
flexible in the way Michael MIC TX/RX keys are configured. However, we
are now taking care of the TX/RX MIC key swapping in user space, so
this code will not be needed. Similarly, there were some remaining WPA
testing code that won't be used in their current form. Remove the
unneeded extra complexity.
