See http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/Wireless-Extensions. Also https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw indicates "The old tool iwconfing, which uses Wireless Extensions interface, is deprecated and it's strongly recommended to switch to iw and nl80211." See also the mailing list thread '[OE-core] iw in place of wireless-tools'. v2 changes: add Upstream-Status to patch, remove duplicate VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_wireless-tools definition.
