NACK. readlink is enabled by default in the busybox config, and it's
needed by other things as well, including base-files (rc.common).
Adding these dependencies to the mac80211 package thus seems a bit
arbitrary and out of place.
I think at some point it probably makes sense to remove the top-level
busybox menuconfig integration and treat its configuration more like
kernel_menuconfig.
