For mac80211_hwsim interfaces, suggest to use wpa_supplicant with the
more modern, netlink based driver instead of wext.
Makes sense, applied.
Actually, I wasn't even able to make a connection with the
configuration
files and information provided in
Documentation/networking/mac80211_hwsim/{README,hostapd.conf/wpa_supp
licant.conf}
This less so, we even have a few test cases we run regularly, but I
don't know. Maybe there's something special in those configuration
files that we don't test for otherwise.
