Hi,
I noticed that my iwm(4) device does not send RTM_IFINFO messages
when the lladdr is changed with ifconfig.
For other interface types ifioctl() handles the lladdr change in
if_setlladdr() and ifnewlladdr().
I attached a diff that seems to fix this.
Is there a specific reason IFT_IEEE80211 is not in the list of
if_types handled in ifioctl()?
