wpa_supplicant not supporting nl80211

[Matt Causey]

Looking at the source, it appears to be there:

http://hostap.epitest.fi/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=hostap-06.git;a=blob;f=hostapd/drivers.c#l21

You can verify if it has been configured by your distro's maintainer
at compile time by running the supplicant manually with -onl80211
