That naming seems a bit questionable - WANT_1X_4WAY_HS or so might be
better? We don't (want to) offload the 1X handshake after all, so that
name is a bit confusing IMHO.

I don't really think so - once you disconnect surely the PMK for the
connection is no longer valid. IMHO it's reasonable to require ensuring
that from drivers, where necessary (mostly, I assume firmware would
throw away the data anyway)
