Subject: hostapd: Set operstate UP when initializing AP mode
X-Git-Url: http://w1.fi/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=hostap.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e11f5a2cbc333113a3a1cc1aeea7f698c3936ca3

hostapd: Set operstate UP when initializing AP mode

This is needed to avoid problems with other applications setting and
leaving the interface to IF_OPER_DORMANT state. In AP mode, the interface
is ready immediately after the keys are set, so we better make sure the
DORMANT state does not prevent normal operations after that.
