As for that, see my other mail.

That should, imho, rather live in debugfs. Somebody doing certification
tests ought to be able to enable debugfs on their system.

Plan has it that the new cfg80211 API for scanning allows scanning for
things rather than filtering the results after the fact, e.g. (like
iwlist already supports) scanning for a particular SSID. I suppose
hardware designs like iwlwifi could make much better use of that than
mac80211 itself though.

Sure, I can do that.
