Taken into account how broken WEXT events are already on 64/32-bit
systems, it would probably be better to add this as a new nl80211 event
which we will hopefully get in the near future. I'm looking for that to
fix the association info reporting, too (and issue that I fixed with
WEXT, but the fix was reverted due to userspace interop issues..).
