Applied.

I'll note that people here seem to want to do a similar thing, so
thanks :)

Also, perhaps we should have a common way to advertise this kind of
capability in the association request of this station, so that the
(mobile?) APs implementing it can know? I think we'd discussed using an
Intel-specific vendor IE for this, but making the specification thereof
public so others could do it as well, but I'm sure we're open for other
suggestions. Any interest?

We're also going to be working on nl80211 extensions to actually let
the driver know if the client is P2P (or NoA capable) or not.
