[PATCH v2] mac80211: Implement commit in wireless extensions

["Alina Friedrichsen" <x-alina@gmx.net>]

This implements commit in wireless extensions for completeness and mayb=
e it could be useful for debugging to initiate a new rejoining process =
without changing the config.

I not so familiar with nl80211 at the moment, so I want add it to nl802=
11 in a second patch.

Version 2: Fix bad header.

Hope we can find a compromise in the conception.
