[PATCH 1/2] wifi: iwlwifi: enable MFP_CAPABLE in FIPS mode

[Jose Ignacio Tornos Martinez <jtornosm@redhat.com>]

Re-enable MFP_CAPABLE flag in FIPS mode for iwlwifi to allow Management
Frame Protection (802.11w) to work with mac80211 software crypto.

Commit 0636800c8ee1 ("wifi: iwlwifi: disable certain features for
fips_enabled") disabled MFP_CAPABLE when fips_enabled=1.
I think the original concern about "some frames need to be handled in
firmware" applies to firmware-offloaded features like WoWLAN and beacon
protection, which remain correctly disabled by the commented commit.
For normal STA mode operation, management frames are processed in software.
And MFP can function in FIPS mode for normal STA operation when mac80211
software crypto handles IGTK encryption/decryption using FIPS-approved
AES-CMAC/GMAC algorithms.

Other major WiFi drivers (ath11k, rtlwifi, mt76, ...) set MFP_CAPABLE
unconditionally, suggesting this approach is viable for FIPS mode operation
with software crypto.

After re-enabling, testing on Intel WiFi 6E AX210 with fips=1 shows:
- IGTK ciphers (CMAC, GMAC-128, GMAC-256) are properly advertised
- WPA3-SAE connections with MFP required succeed
- iw station dump confirms "MFP: yes"

Firmware logs "Unhandled alg: 0x707" (SEC_ENC_ERR) during operation,
confirming that firmware does not have the keys and frames are being
handled by software crypto as expected.
