Based on inputs from Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> from http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/68193 and http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/71702 In xmit path, devices that do full hardware crypto (including MMIC and ICV) need no tailroom. For such devices, tailroom reservation can be skipped if all the keys are programmed into the hardware (i.e software crypto is not used for any of the keys) and none of the keys wants software to generate Michael MIC and IV. v2: Added check for IV along with MMIC.
