    mac80211: Allow AP mode to be enabled · fbf18927

    With the addition of basic rate set and TX queue parameter
    configuration and confirmation that power save buffering is
    working again, mac80211 is now in state that allows AP mode to be
    used without major problems. Consequently, it is time to allow this
    mode to be enabled without having to patch the kernel.
    
    AP mode requires hostapd for management frame processing and as such,
    configuring this mode is only allowed through cfg80211 (not with
    iwconfig and WEXT).
