Oh, I know about 802.1X, sorry, meant that I haven't seen port control
done in Linux.

That particular patch definitely had problems like the missing
skb_reserve. Right now I'm thinking we should do PAE stuff after
converting to 802.3 and do deaggregation at the same time as converting
to 802.3 because that's basically what it is. But if you want to look at
it I'll go back to making hostapd work.
