Thanks! I would assume this would actually need to be "< 0 ? -1 : 0"
since 1 is not a valid error code either. Anyway, driver.h specifies
that 0 is used as the success code in all send functions, so I just
changed wpa_driver_nl80211_send_frame() to return 0 instead of number
of bytes sent to address all the locations. This particular one happened
to one of the few where the caller did not use "< 0" check for error.
