I would assume that once removing CFG80211_WEXT becomes an option, we
can just put the remaining parts of net/wireless/wext-*.c into both
ps3_gelic and ipw2x00, duplicating and then simplifying the
implementation. As far as I can tell, there is very little that is
actually shared between the two anyway.

Indeed.

Note that net/wireless/wext-{core,proc,priv}.c are not even related to
CFG80211_WEXT (wext-{compat,sme}.c are), and just form the core wext
code that can be treated completely orthogonal and independent of
cfg80211. This driver doesn't even use CFG80211_WEXT code at all.
