[PATCH 4.20 36/50] mac80211: ensure that mgmt tx skbs have tailroom for encryption

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>

commit 9d0f50b80222dc273e67e4e14410fcfa4130a90c upstream.

Some drivers use IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_SW_MGMT_TX to indicate that management
frames need to be software encrypted. Since normal data packets are still
encrypted by the hardware, crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt gets decremented
after key upload to hw. This can lead to passing skbs to ccmp_encrypt_skb,
which don't have the necessary tailroom for software encryption.

Change the code to add tailroom for encrypted management packets, even if
crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt is 0.
