No, but until we either fix WEXT or add this stuff to cfg80211, we
shouldn't be adding stuff to iwpriv, because every driver that uses
iwpriv does the shit differently, and that just sucks.

So obviously we need to fix WEXT; but if you don't want to wait until
then, I'd suggest debugfs.  Because if/when support for diversity in
cfg80211/WEXT comes out, I'm gonna be the first person to rip out the
iwpriv ioctls.
