Hashing takes quite some time (can be about one second on a low-power
CPU for each passphrase provided), so hostapd can easily hit the 900 ms
Wi-Fi client authentication deadline (mac80211 uses 3x 300 ms). This can
be fixed by storing the passphrase instead of PSK with the STA and defer
the hashing into the WPA/RSN 4-way handshake, when enumerating all PSKs.
This applies for the case where a RADIUS server is used to store the
per-STA passphrases and this passphrase is delivered as part of the MAC
ACL check during IEEE 802.11 Authentication frame processing.
