Drivers can offload EAPOL 4WHS to wpa_supplicant during roaming with
non-FT AKMs. In that case supplicant needs to know rejected links info
to validate AP's MLO Link KDEs in 3/4 frame.
Ex: Driver handles only re-association request and response frames while
doing roaming with non-FT AKM then offload 4WHS to wpa_supplicant

No problem, I will post the required changes for
cfg80211_roamed/NL80211_CMD_ROAM path, hope that is fine.
