I meant that most of the time, the TEKs are created for exactly the
duration of one EAP run. However, since the text does not require
this (it just says "typically"), some methods could, for instance,
could rekey to new TEKs during the same run, or use the TEKs for
fast reconnect.

But I'll try to come up with better text.
