Only enable Extended Key ID support for drivers which are not supporting crypto offload and also do not support A-MPDU.
While any driver using SW crypto from mac80211 is generally able to also support Extended Key ID these drivers are likely to mix keyIDs in AMPDUs when rekeying. According to IEEE 802.11-2016 "9.7.3 A-MPDU contents" this is not allowed.
