I forgot to mention that wl1251 most probably is still broken regards to
bssid handling. I will fix this after my (current) vacation, unless
someone else is faster. To get wl1251 temporarily working, this patch
must be reverted:

    mac80211: fix managed mode BSSID handling
    
    Currently, we will ask the driver to configure right away
    when somebody changes the desired BSSID. That's totally
    strange because then we will configure the driver without
    even knowing whether the BSS exists. Change this to only
    configure the BSSID when associated, and configure a zero
    BSSID when not associated.

Oddly enough I can't find this patch anymore in wireless-testing, I
could only find a revert. I don't know what happened to it.
