I don't think that's necessarily true. wpa_s will pre-build a list, but
note that it doesn't make those peers as discovered and you can't really
do anything with them. As such, I would argue that reporting probe
requests ("probes") would be harmful and counter to one potential goal
of this patch (powersaving.)
