Perhaps we should break up this feature into two? With the upcoming
probe-resp patches a wl12xx card will be able to indicate
probe-requests with WSC IE up, but won't be able to add a userspace
provided WSC IE into beacons.
Also I'm wondering what this is used for. For instance this contains
no indication about WPS1 and p2p. Pretty sure ath6kl handles these in
a similar fashion (at least for the put-IE-from-userspace-in-beacon
part).
And as a final nit-pick, I think WPS2 is more appropriate, as this is
also the name of the option in the hostapd code and config file.
