[PATCH] Do not send a NAS-Port attribute in Access-Request and Accounting-Request RADIUS packets as the association id is likely to always be 0.

Hi Jouni,

It is because the value is not conceptually available where auth takes
place before assoc.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3580#section-3.4

"Where IEEE 802.1X authentication occurs prior to association, a
unique NAS-Port value may not be available."

hostapd always sends a value of 0 in this scenario.

Regards,

Nick
