Unfortunately I didn't have much time to look into your AP patches yet.
We need to review this very carefully.  It touches so many parts of the
code that I'm a bit worried that this would break normal STA
functionality.

How well have you tested these patches in STA mode? Do you think there
would be any possibility of making this Kconfigurable so that there
would be no (or very little) binary difference in the code if AP is not
enabled?
