Please write a proper commit message, in imperative voice.

"Notify the ... to" sounds really odd to me - "notify userspace about
updated ..." or something?

Also this is missing a lot of commit message to explain what this does
and when it's needed.

That should explain the data type.

blank line again

line breaks are awful

probably should have tracing.

I see no reason to have this trivial wrapper.

Hello Johannes,

I saw on your review comment that this wrapper is not needed. I wanted to confirm with you if it would be ok to call a cfg80211 API from a mac80211 based driver, since that is what would be done if this wrapper is removed. Additionally, another reason I have this wrapper is so I can place a tracepoint. What are your thoughts about this?

Thank you,
Muna

Yes, that's fine.

You already have a tracepoint on cfg80211, seems sufficient?

Hello Johannes,

Please drop this patch.
