Well, oops. Maybe it shouldn't be required?

I think we require this for some configuration handling. The comment
is to be updated with proper information. We'll address that.

The way I'm understanding Johannes' comment is that maybe we should
change mac80211 to require this op to be present. Should be easy to fix
in mac80211, right?

Ok. So make this callback optional in mac80211? should be a simple code change.
