In the current code, if there was a rekey, we remove all the existing keys from mac80211, then re-add the ones that the FW sent with ieee80211_gtk_rekey_add, (newer FW will send also the existing GTKs/BIGTKs) and then update the sequence number. Instead of removing and re-adding the existing keys for no good reason, we can just update the sequence of all keys, also of the ones that are going to be replaced, and update again after the replace. This change is required because ieee80211_gtk_rekey_add is going to be changed to lookup the cipher from the old key instead of receiving it as an argument, and for this it will need the old key(s), so we can't remove all keys. Note that with this change, in case that a key that existed before wowlan is replaced, mac80211 will now call the driver to remove the old key and add the new one (as opposed the previous behaviour, in which the key was removed by the driver itself). Of course we don't want to run the set_key callbacks in this case, so just return early.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
