With my favorite kernel macro, config_enabled(), you could get rid of
quite a lot of the ugly ifdefs.

Yeah, but as long as this isn't going upstream I don't really want to
though since then it touches the code and is less obvious. Anyway we'll
see.

Ah, makes send.

FWIW, I think we should push this, and other wireless Android support,
upstream. We should first get them to use upstream interfaces and then
start fixing the problematic areas one by one.

I agree. Another big hurdle I see are the android driver private ioctls. Do you have a good knowledge about those? I think some of those already have a nl80211 equivalent.

Maybe it would be good to update twiki [1] on wireless.kernel.org with such information. It seems a bit outdated.
