From: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> It may be the case that a user wants to register for any frame of a particular type. Allow this operation by passing null as matching pattern and 0 as pattern len when registering for the frame. This is useful to wpa_supplicant when it wants to receive any AUTH frame.
