Hi,

Since both - 'hostapd' AND 'wpa_supplicant' - needed an update, I sent
in a patch series. Please see below "Patch 1/2 hostapd..." and "Patch
2/2 wpa_supplicant...").

Obsolete patches were deleted. I kept the two important ones.

I hope its correct this way.

Both applied here.

Best,
Matthias
