ath9k_hw: add multicast key search support
If a MAC address for a key table entry is flagged with the multicast bit (0x01), indicate to the hardware that multicast lookup instead of unicast lookup should be used. The multicast bit itself never makes it to the actual keytable entry register, as it is shifted out. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.
