Hey Daniel,

Very cool! I took a look at bumping hostapd to a newer snapshot from master and 
I gave up because the patch refresh got really hairy and I didn’t have the time 
to figure it out (I barely had time for the mac80211 update). When you say 
“current release” of hostapd, do you mean a newer snapshot of master? The 
newest release that I can see on the hostapd website is 2.3 released on 
2014-10-09 and OpenWRT uses a snapshot of master from 2014-10-25. I just want 
to make sure we’re all on the same page.
