In case it was not clear, I mean that instead of having hostapd create a second bridge,
just have it create a macvlan on the network device (eth0, etc) instead.

I have been working with upstream hostapd, and I have FT at least mostly
working using a single bridge.

I found a simplified config useful, in case it helps others:
