1) we go eg. to external/ directory
2) get latest hostap (eg. via git clone ...)
3) we run mmm external/hostap/wpa_supplicant
And wpa_supplicant should compile without any modification.

I suspect this Android.mk we have already in current is from Android
structure, where we have only external/wpa_supplicant directory - and
because of that problems with src and paths.
Why Android don't have same directory structure like hostap
(external/hostap/wpa_supplicant)? This required a work during each
update/integration (adding community patches).
