FWIW, I've applied the first two patches here.

I'd really like you to continue with only that for now, and (try to) get
hostapd/wpa_supplicant changes upstream, perhaps with corresponding
hwsim tests. That way, we can see this working live.

We briefly discussed this at the wireless workshop, and the general
feeling seems to have been that the compat mode is probably not really
worthwhile, but I haven't quite made up my mind on that.

Still, having tests and being able to check it out would help a lot,
also as part of perhaps building a case for compat mode.

Thanks,
johannes
