Subject: add_iface controls

Sorry for the mostly-usage-related question, but I'm obviously missing
something simple - after a week of searching list archives and git I
sure can't find it though... What patch set is required to enable the
mac80211 vap add_iface/remove_iface controls in sysfs?

Running 2.6.23rc8 I can't find any mention of them in the source (and
they don't, obviously, show up in sys), and pulling John's git tree
yields no joy either - can anyone point me in the right direction?

(Symptoms are nothing in sysfs under /sys/class/ieee80211/phyN for
add/remove, and no __ATTR entries for add_iface in wireless/sysfs or
anywhere else that I could find)

Yeah, they got lost. We decided not to put them into sysfs in mainline
right now because Luis wants to make cfg80211 use configfs. You'll need
to use an as-of-now-unwritten nl80211 client.
