There is no point for that. The difficulty is finding out that there is a problem. To find out that there is a problem, it's sufficient to run a standard driver, no need for a dummy driver. People already have little incentive to run real wireless drivers on 64 bit boxes, I don't see who they would run dummy drivers. > Nothing using iw_point in these request objects can possibly work in > compat situations, for example.
