The primary motivation is to eliminate the need for installing and starting
a userspace tool for the basic WiFi usage. This will be critical for the
Qualcomm WLAN devices deployed in x86 laptops.

I can't even remember it ever being the case that wifi would come up without
the help of a userspace component of some sort to initiate the scan and choose
and AP to associate with.

And from that perspective your argument doesn't seem valid at all.

Kalle has some information to share.

Thanks,
