The CMD_PORT_AUTHORIZED event was described as an event which indicated a successfully completed 4-way handshake. But the behavior was not as advertized. The only driver which uses this is brcmfmac, and this driver only sends the event after a successful 802.1X-FT roam. This prevents userspace applications from knowing if the 4-way completed on: 1. Normal 802.1X connects 2. Normal PSK connections 3. FT-PSK roams wpa_supplicant handles this incorrect behavior by just completing the connection after association, before the 4-way has completed. If the 4-way ends up failing it disconnects at that point. Since this behavior appears to be expected (wpa_s handles it this way) I have changed the wording in the API description to reflect the actual behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
