[PATCH 02/15] mka: Ignore MACsec SAK Use Old Key parameter if we don't remember our old key

From: Mike Siedzik <msiedzik at extremenetworks.com>

Upon receipt of the "MACsec MKPDU SAK Use parameter set" the KaY verifies
that both the latest key and the old key are valid.  If the local system
reboots or is reinitalizied, the KaY won't have a copy of it's old key.
Therefore if the KaY does not have a copy of it's old key it should not
reject MKPDUs that contain old key data in the MACsec SAK Use parameter.
