Forum, and there we are lucky if we get dmesg output. When we do and it contains 
a deauthentication reason, I always need to bring up a web page to interpret the 
output. With this change, one step could be skipped.

But is it worth putting this parsing in the *kernel*? I mean, if anyone
is interested enough in the problem, a simple google query is not that
hard, right?

Sure, it's not hard to find it. My and Larry's point is more about
convenience and user friendliness.

On the other hand I do understand that kernel is getting bloated all the
time, for example openwrt is suffering from that. So not really sure
what is the best.
