and this ... etc ...

also got some really long lines that could easily be broken

So this one I think I'll let you do with the export and all, because
that's way nicer than duplicating the code, and it's clearly necessary.

I'm not going to complain _too_ much about this, but all this use of
nl80211 attributes better be thoroughly documented in the header file.

That sounds almost like it's a command ("start PMSR") but really it's a
notification/event as far as hwsim is concerned, so please document
that.

> + * @HWSIM_ATTR_PMSR_REQUEST: peer measurement request

and please document the structure of the request that userspace will get
(and how it should respond?)

That last line should just be */

I think it'd be better if you exported it as nl80211_..., since it
really is just a netlink thing, not cfg80211 functionality.

It would also be good, IMHO, to split this part out into a separate
patch saying that e.g. hwsim might use it like you do here, or even that
vendor netlink could use it where needed.
