+What:  Wireless extensions over netlink (CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS_RTNETLINK)
+When:  with the merge of wireless-dev, 2.6.22 or later
+Why:   The option/code is
+        * not enabled on most kernels
+        * not required by any userspace tools (except an experimental one,
+          and even there only for some parts, others use ioctl)
+        * pointless since wext is no longer evolving and the ioctl
+          interface needs to be kept
