[PATCHv2 0/3] hostap: Add AP DFS support

Seems patch no 2 did not make it on the mailing list because it was
too big (got "Message body is too big: 32009 bytes with a limit of 25 KB"
as a reply).

Because my moderator approval rate is rather low (read: my mails never
get approved), I've uploaded the patches for review:

http://packetmixer.de/hostapd-ap-dfs/v2/

Also CCs were removed because in my first attempt I got anoter pending
moderator approval mail with the reason: Too many recipients to the message.

Just FYI, I hope you are still in the mood to review the actual content. :)

Cheers,
	Simon
