Sorry, I have been busy lately (over 500 unread emails in
linux-wireless, doh!) and I haven't had time to look at your patches
in detail. But I want to emphasise that in the future we want to
extend this interface with new events like beacon loss or
retransmissions. From a quick look your patches make this possible and
that's good.
