Is not that we support MFP in hardware. We just return -EOPNOTSUPP
in rt2x00mac_set_key() when mac80211 will try to set MFP ciphers
(since rt2x00crypto_key_to_cipher() will return CIPHER_NONE) and
we fallback to software encryption.

Please repost patch that enable MFP unconditionally with
'Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org' tag.
