wlan: disable CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT in kernel config
[Detail]
1. Driver/kernel will report tons of RTM_NEWLINK event even driver
scan done if kernel configured with CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT, which will
make userspace threads busy processing the RTM_NEWLINK event.
Userspace threads will get strange state if cannot handle so much
RTM_NEWLINK event.
2. Kernel Kconfig has post comments for CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT:
help
Enable this option if you need old userspace for wireless
extensions with cfg80211-based drivers.
Android userspace app support the new CFG80211 API like
wpa_supplicant/hostapd, not need CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT anymore.
[Solution]
1. Remove CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT in kernel config.
[Feature] WLAN
