hostapd is a user space program and it does not explicitly require
kernel modules.. Are you asking about requirements for the Host AP

ARC4 and Michael MIC could be used, but they are not really requirements
in the sense that Host AP driver has an internal implementation if these
algorithms are not available through Crypto API.
