Could you please clarify what type of Authentication frame
retransmission case are you addressing here? It sounds like the station
is broken if it sends another FT Authentication frame and does not use
the ANonce it receives from the response to that frame. Is this because
of mac80211 Authentication frame retries? If so, the correct fix would
be in mac80211, not in hostapd.
