Subject: [PATCH] staging: wlan-ng: Disable buggy MIB ioctl

struct hfa384x_wpa_data ends with a flexible array, but it is allocated
on the stack. This means it can never hold any data. Disable the
memcpy() calls in and out of the structure, since it must always be
zero. This could never have worked.
