One thing I forgot to mention is that currently, mac80211 is not able to
associate different virtual stations with the same BSSID. I had a patch
to fix this but because I had so many patches I dropped that one. I'll
try to revive it next week if I get around, basically it consisted of
adding an sdata pointer to the station get routine. The bigger problem
was making the RX path happy about it :)
