The code itself is correct, but there are process issues that need to be
fixed before I can accept this:

1. This is a resubmission of the patch sent on 2026-07-09 [1]. A
resubmission must carry a version tag: the subject line should read
"[PATCH v2] wifi: brcmfmac: ..." not "[PATCH] wifi: brcmfmac: ...".

2. A v2 submission must include a "Changes in v2:" section below the ---
line documenting what changed from v1.

3. The From: address (bogdan.nicolae@xxxxxxxxx) does not match the
Signed-off-by address (bogdan.nicolae@xxxxxxx). Please use a
consistent address or add a second Signed-off-by for the sending
address.

4. The patch addresses two independent issues: fixing the packet_id in
brcmf_cyw_mgmt_tx() (SAE auth frame TX) and fixing the zero-init and
PMKID copy in brcmf_cyw_external_auth() (auth completion). Please
split these into two separate patches.

Please send a v2 addressing these points.
