Completely untested, not entirely sure it compiles. For whatever

this looks good, please apply it.
Good catch ! Thanks for the excellent work !
I'm just puzzled about how SoftMAC was working with
wpa_supplicant, as wpa_supplicant expect the standard
events. Actually, maybe the answer is that it did not work...
Sometimes SoftMAC works with wpa_supplicant and sometimes not. When I switched from a Linksys WRT54G
V1 to a V5, it stopped working.
When I installed the patch, it would not compile. The warnings and errors are
shown below:
