Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: remove set but not used variable 'old'

Fixes gcc '-Wunused-but-set-variable' warning:

net/mac80211/key.c: In function 'ieee80211_set_tx_key':
net/mac80211/key.c:271:24: warning:
 variable 'old' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

It is not used since introduction in
