 *
 * Frame transmission and registration support exists to allow userspace
 * entities such as wmediumd to receive and process all broadcasted
 * frames from a mac80211_hwsim radio device.
 *
 * This allow user space applications to decide if the frame should be
 * dropped or not and implement a wireless medium simulator at user space.
 *
 * Registration is done by sending a register message to the driver and
 * will be automatically unregistered if the user application doesn't
 * responds to sent frames.
 * Once registered the user application has to take responsibility of
 * broadcasting the frames to all listening mac80211_hwsim radio
 * interfaces.
 *
 * For more technical details, see the corresponding command descriptions
 * below.
