Now that I've looked a bit closer today: I'm realizing this may(?) be
one of the first "full MAC" drivers trying to implement its own MLME --
or at least, the auth/assoc bits. I wouldn't really consider myself an
expert on the core wireless APIs here, so this might be an area that
could warrant some extra look from Kalle and/or Johannes too.
