it's a little bit difficult to provide patches for the HostAP driver, because the code changes very often. there are only some huge sources files and i think it would be better to split them into pieces to make our life and development easier ;).

ok, i'm going to upgrade it for the latest HostAP driver, if Jouni has done all his announced major changes.
