Thanks! Couple of comments below on areas that I don't think should be
included in the patch or well, at least should go into a separate patch
since they are blocking the less controversial parts from going int.

These are undocumented on purpose since they are way too difficult to
get working.

These are undocumented since they are for very specific testbed purpose
and not meant for normal use.

I don't think the WPA_MEM_DEFINED() macro is used anywhere in
hostap.git at the moment, so it does not look useful to define this
either.

This driver wrapper is only for hostapd, so it should not be mentioned
in wpa_supplicant/defconfig.

Same as above, i.e., I would rather hide these until the implementation
is in more usable state.

Same as above - extra complexity for very small use case.

This is in the same special use case category..

Makefile does not use this, so this should not be added here. The real
build config options for the D-Bus interface (CONFIG_CTRL_IFACE_DBUS*)
are already mentioned.

See above - not used currently in hostap.git and no point in documenting
it here either.
