Is there any provision to offload 4-way handshake in hostapd or any
proposed patch that contains support for supplicant offload.?
If it’s not available, then how easy or complex to add such support in hostapd.

Requirement: The driver/device is assumed to handle the 4-way
handshake by itself instead of relying on the hostapd.

In linux 4.13-rc1 it has been added to the nl80211 API. For wpa_supplicant some RFC's have been submitted for this [1]. I currently have a patch series ready for submission, but I was waiting for 4.13 kernel release to do so.
