Not really. I think we all pretty much assume that once we support the
cipher algorithms (TKIP/CCMP) everything else works because it's
implemented in wpa_supplicant and the drivers don't have to do anything
but pass frames and eventually install keys.

The only driver where that's not true is the PS3 wifi driver ;-)
