ath9k: connectivity is lost after Group rekeying is done
Connectivtiy is lost after Group rekeying is done. The keytype maintained by ath9k is reset when group key is updated. Though sc_keytype can be reset only for broadcast key the proper fix would be to use mac80211 provided key type from txinfo during xmit and get rid of sc_keytype from ath9k ath_softc.
