[PATCH 08/15] mka: MKPDU SAK Use Body's Delay Protect bit set incorrectly

From: Mike Siedzik <msiedzik at extremenetworks.com>

Delay Protect and Replay Protect are two separate and distinct features
of MKA.  Per IEEE802.1X-2010 Clause 9.10.1 "Delay Protect, TRUE if LPNs
are being reported sufficiently frequently to allow the receipt to
provide data delay protection.  If FALSE, the LPN can be reported as
zero", and per Clause 9.10 "NOTE - Enforcement of bounded received delay
necessitates transmission of MKPDUs at frequency (0.5 s) intervals, to
meet a maximum data delay of 2 s while minimizing connectivity
interruption due to the possibility of lost or delayed MKPDUs."

This means ieee802_1x_mka_sak_use_body.delay_protect should only be set
TRUE when MKPDUs are being transmitted every 0.5 s (or faster).  By
default the KaY sends MKPDUs every MKA_HELLO_TIME (2.0s), so by default
delay_protect should be FALSE.

A new 'u32 mka_hello_time' parameter to has been added to the
'ieee802_1x_kay' data structure.  If delay protection is desired, the
KaY initialization code should set kay->mka_hello_time to
MKA_BOUNDED_HELLO_TIME (500ms).
