Hi Arend,
So essentially we'd need a new operation in cfg80211_ops that would accept
the control port frame data and some control flags. Do we want to pass in
an skb with all the 802.11 headers set or a 802.3 formatted skb (since that
is what other data frames look like initially on the netdev)

Hi Johannes,
If so, can we do something like what ieee80211_process_sa_query_req in
net/mac80211/rx.c or ieee80211_tdls_prep_mgmt_packet in
net/mac80211/tdls.c do? E.g. use ieee80211_tx_skb or
__ieee80211_subif_start_xmit or similar to inject the skb with the
DONT_ENCRYPT flag?
Yes, this wi

This commit implements the TX side of NL80211_CMD_CONTROL_PORT_FRAME.
Userspace provides the raw EAPoL frame using NL80211_ATTR_FRAME. A
skbuf is built and then injected onto the netdev of the wireless device.
The CONTROL_PORT_ETHERTYPE_NO_ENCRYPT will still in theory be honored by
the underlying
