Please strive for improved code for human readers and

Depending on alignment, perhaps a good bit of this code
could use ether_addr_<foo> functions.
wilc_set_wfi_drv_handler(vif, wilc_get_vif_idx(vif),
ether_addr_equals(wl->vif[i ^ 1]->bssid,
wl->vif[i ^ 1]->src_addr));
The code could also be restructured to reduce
indentation by using if / continue;
if (ndev != wl->vif[i]->ndev)
continue;
Using a temporary for the repeated use of
wilc_get_vif_idx(vif) would also help code length.

ether_addr_copy()
etc.
