    base-files, mac80211, broadcom-wl: use uci to populate wireless config · 5e35b456
    Christian Lamparter authored
    
    Previously, wifi detect simply dumped its generated wireless
    configuration to STDOUT. A second step was needed to append
    the configuration to /etc/config/wireless (or create it, if
    it didn't exist).
    
    With this patch, The wifi detection script will now use uci
    to update the wireless configuration directly.
    
    This patch also makes the initially created wifi-iface a
    named section ('default_radio$X' for mac80211 and
    'default_wl$X' for broadcom). With this change, uci will
    not print the cfgHASH to STDOUT (which would now corrupt
    the wireless configuration). It will also prevent adding
    duplicated wifi interface configurations, if the wifi
    configuration is run concurrently.
