commit 009a9e04787c3de2699bbaacee3d96919fbaa82f
Author: Felix Fietkau <nbd at nbd.name>
AuthorDate: Wed Sep 17 21:31:51 2025 +0200

    wifi-scripts: simplify MLO handling
    
    Move mlo specific hostapd ubus call from wireless handler to netifd core
    ucode script. This avoids unnecessary queueing and the fake MLO wireless
    device.
