Indeed.. That AAD length-in-the-buffer design came from the over ten
year old code that was optimized to cover the CCM construction with the
same buffer and that was not cleaned up when this was converted to use
cryptoapi couple of years ago.

It won't be in IEEE 802.11 use cases. The exact length depends on the
IEEE 802.11 frame type, but AAD is constructed in a way that it is
normally a bit over 20 octets while allowing CCM to fit the related
operations into two AES blocks.
