    The 802.15.4-2011 standard states that for each key, a list of devices
    that use this key shall be kept. Previous patches have only considered
    two options:
    
     * a device "uses" (or may use) all keys, rendering the list useless
     * a device is restricted to a certain set of keys
    
    Another option would be that a device *may* use all keys, but need not
    do so, and we are interested in the actual set of keys the device uses.
    Recording keys used by any given device may have a noticable performance
    impact and might not be needed as often. The common case, in which a
    device will not switch keys too often, should still perform well.
