    mac80211: move control.hw_key assignment · 813d7669
    Johannes Berg authored
    When mac80211 asks a driver to encrypt a frame, it
    must assign the control.hw_key pointer for it to
    know which key to use etc. Currently, mac80211 does
    this whenever it would software-encrypt a frame.
    
    Change the logic of this code to assign the hw_key
    pointer when selecting the key, and later check it
    when deciding whether to encrypt the frame or let
    it be encrypted by the hardware. This allows us to
    later simply skip the encryption function since it
    no longer modifies the TX control.
