You see, we have servers with multiple wireless's and depending on the
work group and
location, the nickname aids the tech support people to identify what
wireless a person is
using. That is the only reason why we use it. Right now I have created
code for those IOCTL's,
so if mac80211 doesn't have it, we can just implement it on our servers.
Why don't you do that wireless-interface to whatever mapping in userspace?
