Subject: WPA3 support for mac80211 drivers

Hi Johannes, Larry,

I got a query from a brcmsmac user about support for WPA3. I had no idea
what would be needed and actually assumed/hoped mac80211 would take care
of it. My first attempt was looking in patchwork for other mac80211
drivers adding WPA3 and found this one interesting enough:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/[email protected]/

It only sets flag IEEE80211_HW_MFP_CAPABLE in hw->flags. So I suggested
to do the same in brcmsmac. Unfortunately no success so can you think of
anything else that would be required from brcmsmac. It can be a wrong
configuration for the supplicant, but I figured it would not harm to put
out this question.

Regards,
Arend
