It sort of depends. Practically all of this is done with the RTNL held,
so you might be blocking _other_ things that need the RTNL. I'm not sure
if that matters that much, but still ...

Regardless, I'd try this first. Perhaps you can even see later that only
some commands take a long time, and others are quicker. Having
wpa_supplicant/hostapd not know when an operation is really completed is
unlikely to be a good idea, IMHO.
