nl80211 works with so called "soft-mac" adapters. Started with Intel 3945 all
newer adapters from Intel are "soft-mac" and use iwlagn driver. There shall be
no problem. Older adapters from Intel need wext. There is a convenient option
in wpa_supplicant that enables to define more wlan extensions on the
commandline (-Dnl80211,wext). If nl80211 is not available for the driver then
wext is used. This shall solve the problem.
Patch submitted from bnc 625403. Once you apply the patch and test we can close
it again.
