Please note that I'm planning on promoting that we would approve
either the option 1 or option 1b in 537r3. In both of those cases, the
AP will retain the PTK-KCK only for the duration of the association.
In other words, this notification about potential extra time is not
really relevant for those options. It would apply for option 2, but
I'm planning on promoting the additional changes to be handled in
P802.11bh/D1.0 LB instead of REVme now that TGbh is finally
proceeding.
