[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] hostapd: Enable Interworking (802.11u) and Hotspot 2.0 Support

[Bima Hutama]

  -Description:
	It enables functionality to improve interworking with external networks
	(GAS/ANQP to learn more about the networks and network selection based on available credentials).
	I figured out that it was actually not activated yet in hostapd. It enables hostapd to support
	802.11u standard just like modern AP which implements Hospot 2.0 based on 802.11u. The example
	of this is Telekom Germany who provides its customers the roaming capability to their WIFI-hotspots
	by authentication with EAP-SIM (from SIM card of the customer's mobile devices), so that the customers
	can connect automatically to telekom-802.11u-capable hotspots encrypted and without human assistance.
	Activating Hotspot 2.0 allows AP to provides more specific informations and services based on 802.11u.
	Wiki and uci configuration will be made for this.

  -Changelog:
	Add CONFIG_INTERWORKING=y and CONFIG_HS20=y.
