Jouni Malinen ca2848022c ath9k: Postpone key cache entry deletion for TXQ frames reference it
Do not delete a key cache entry that is still being referenced by
pending frames in TXQs. This avoids reuse of the key cache entry while a
frame might still be transmitted using it.

To avoid having to do any additional operations during the main TX path
operations, track pending key cache entries in a new bitmap and check
whether any pending entries can be deleted before every new key
add/remove operation. Also clear any remaining entries when stopping the
interface.
