This use of a postfix in the hostapd_cli command has the same issue as
postfix LINKID in the actually control interface command has, i.e., it
can be mixed up with other parts of the command.

This is this even needed in hostapd_cli? Isn't it much cleaner to use
the -l command line parameter for per-link operations?
