Why not use u32? I know we won't use more than u16 most likely, but u32
takes just as much space in netlink messages ...
Sure.

You might consider checking this in register_wiphy?
Right, thanks!.
So about the race condition ... shouldn't the initial MAC list be given
in the start_ap() call, so that the AP can start up with a proper ACL
already in place, rather than starting up& then modifying later?
Ok. So the ap will start with the initial mac list and the list
can also be changed dynamically?. I'm fine with this.
