Comment:

 Answer from Atheros: XR is implemented for STA mode only so far. There has
 been no need for XR in master mode yet, so this is simply missing. I've
 now asked Atheros if it would be possible to hand us the necessary
 information to implement XR for other modes than STA as well.

 Consequences:
  * it is valid for {{{ieee80211_setupxr()}}} to return NULL, so this
 should be expected and properly handled; will take care to provide a patch
 for this
  * this fact needs to be documented, in the wiki as well as in the users-
 guide; any volunteers?
