QosControl missing in eapol key exchanging message

Hi, Group:
I'm using a mini PICe wifi AC NIC & ath10k driver to connect to a Cisco AP. Doing a WPA-PSK authentication that has a 4 way handshake.
When I use wireshark to decode the captured wifi message (Qos Key message 2of 4 is from Sta to AP), I noticed that QoS Control section (0x0007) missing in header, that caused wireshark to not be able to decode the message.
Does anybody knows about this? Any particular reason? Does this violate the spec for message building?

Thanks!
Nick Shu
