wpa_supplicant drivers and kernel drivers are two different things. the get_driver() function returns the kernel driver. you are passing that in where we request the wpa_supplicant driver. it won't work for most drivers. wpa_supplicant defines a generic "wext" driver that handles the wireless extension API. it also defines a handful of custom drivers, because the kernel wireless drivers are such pieces of cat poop. madwifi and ndiswrapper are two of them. but, say, airo (a valid kernel driver) is not.
