Sysfs (at least /sys/class/net/*/wireless) is already deprecated,
see the help text of WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS:
-------------------------------------------
defined at net/wireless/Kconfig:64

^^^^^^^^^^
files in /sys/class/net/*/wireless/. The same information
is available via the ioctls as well.
Say Y if you have programs using it, like old versions of
