It depends. Some cards (like my ipw2100) don't have any interesting iwpriv controls, while others (as yours, as mine PrismII) have a lot. As long as you are referering to wpa as wpa-psk, you'll surely find some cards implementing TKIP, etc. in firmware (as yours) and you surely find some who don't. If you're looking at other wpa standards (like wpa-radius, etc.) the wpa clients must handle varous keystores, trust dbs, etc. and I'ven't seen any card, that's able to do that - for good reasons.
