6e8183d714 nl80211: Stop more quickly on initialization errors
Stop on fatal errors like an attempt to use a non-existing interface or
not have root privileges to avoid producing confusing error messages.

94627f6cc8 hostapd: Detect bridge interface automatically
This makes the bridge parameter unnecessary for cases where the interface
is already in a bridge and sysfs is mounted to /sys so that the detection
code works.

For nl80211, the bridge parameter can be used to request the AP
interface to be added to the bridge automatically (brctl may refuse to
do this before hostapd has been started to change the interface mode).
If needed, the bridge interface is also created.

34f2f814e0 Share a single Linux ioctl helper fo setting interface up/down
Number of Linux driver wrappers included this more or less identical
function, so lets add a new helper file to be able to share some more
code between the driver wrappers.
