Subject: [PATCH] hostapd: Add an option to notify management frames on
 ctrl_iface
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

In some contexts (e.g. Multi-AP) it can be useful to have access to
some of the management frames in upper layers (e.g. to be able to
process the content of association requests externally).

Add 'notify_mgmt_frames'. When enabled, it will notify the ctrl_iface
when a management frame arrives using 'AP_MGMT_FRAME_RECEIVED'.

Note that to avoid completely flooding the ctrl_iface, not all
management frames are included (e.g. beacons are excluded).
