Well, I think we are getting to the point where more or less all the
needed interfaces are in place to implement this cleanly. I would assume
that some drivers have already supported this in the past, but there
must have been some hacks in place, e.g., to avoid the WPI PN
configuration that I fixed in the other patch from yesterday. There is
still a small piece needed for AP mode to indicate some events that I
hope to get submitted once I actually understand what it does ;-). In
addition, better configuration of the AKM could be useful to get added
eventually.

Johannes covered other parts of the question and I don't have
anything to add at this point.
