  If the EAP-TLS layer allows TLS negotiation OR EAP-Success, then it's 
possible to bypass TLS by spoofing an EAP-Success.  So the EAP-TLS layer needs 
to have a way to say "we're done, EAP-Success is now OK".

  It's really nested:  EAP ( EAP-TLS ( TLS ) ) 

  We can't finish EAP until we know that EAP-TLS is finished.  We can't finish 
EAP-TLS until we know that TLS is finished.
