[RFC 05/10] nl80211_driver: add a handler to create_interface

From: David Spinadel <david.spinadel at intel.com>

Add an option to pass handler to nl80211_create_iface and
nl80211_create_interface_once that will be called after recieving
the message from the kernel.
this handler will add the option to process the message in different ways
for different interfaces.
