Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mwifiex: enable host mlme on sdio W8997 chipsets

From: Rafael Beims <rafael.beims@...adex.com>

Enable the host mlme flag for W8997 chipsets so WPA3 can be used.
This feature depends on firmware support (V2 API key), which may not be
available in all available firmwares.

Tested on a Verdin iMX8MP (SDIO-UART) and Verdin iMX8MM (SDIO-SDIO):
    - created AP's requiring WPA2 and WPA3 authentication and successfully
      connected clients to them.
    - connected as a client to AP's requiring WPA2 and WPA3 authentication
