Sure. I thought I already posted that patch. This is a patch that
applied to compat-wireless 2010-03-23:

---------------
Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: sample survey implementation for mac80211_hwsim

This adds the survey function to both mac80211 itself and to mac80211_hwsim.
For the latter driver, we simply invent some noise level.
