User space can now allow the kernel to associate to an AP that requires MFP or that doesn't have MFP enabled in the same NL80211_CMD_CONNECT command.

This is why the maintainer of this driver is CCed.
Indeed in brcmfmac the IE is processed to determine whether it is required or optional. Probably will change our driver to use the explicit mfp values from cfg80211_connect_params::sme.
