James Prestwood 493a0ebd80 nl80211: fix PORT_AUTHORIZED wording to reflect behavior
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.

README

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.
