I thought that issues was about actual WEP keys larger than 128-bit;
some D-Link APs and cards allowed 152-bit WEP keys back before WPA was
common.  We decided not to care about those right now, but I didn't
think that would impact TKIP at all.  Does the TKIP key material go
through the same path in the iwl driver that WEP key material does?
