This lets user specify additional IEs for probe requests and

I could understand adding configuration option for additional IEs in
Probe Request and Association Request frames, but I don't understand why
this would reuse ap_vendor_elements which is both named and documented
as applying to AP and P2P GO mode. That's just asking for problems since
the existing parameter is already in use and the set of IEs in various
management frames is different. Even the Probe Request and Association
Request frame cases are so different, that it would likely make more
sense to have separate parameters for each of those.
Ok, I'll make new config entries. How does 'probe_ie' and 'assoc_ie'
sound for a names?
Thanks,
Ben
