[PATCH wireless 0/2] wifi: mt76: clear cipher state on key removal for WED offload

[Joshua Klinesmith]

When switching WiFi encryption from WPA-PSK/SAE to open/none with
WED hardware offload enabled, throughput drops to zero. The BSS
cipher state is set when group keys are installed but never cleared
when they are removed. The WA firmware retains the stale cipher
value and keeps the protection bit set on WED-offloaded packets,
causing all plaintext frames to be dropped.

Found via reverse engineering of the vendor MediaTek SDK
mt_wifi.ko driver.
