Well, I tested with Packetspammer and it worked. As in many cases, the resources
that say otherwise are wrong.

The drivers for most devices without a hardware MAC use mac80211 and friends. In
fact, it is a prerequisite for getting a driver included in the mainline
drivers/net/wireless/ tree. If the driver implements its own MAC layer, then it
resides in drivers/staging/. Yes, it is loaded on your system, and it handles a
lot of things for the drivers that use it.

If Aircrack adds the socket method used by Packetspammer, it will work with
nearly every driver in the kernel that supports monitor mode. Whether they want
to do that will be their decision, of course.
