The way I initially thought we could do wireless extensions is by making all the compat code in cfg80211 be independent of CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT, but this is turning out to not be feasible. Therefore, fix the Kconfig help text and make the option default to yes, so people won't get a nasty surprise when mac80211 will get rid of its 'select WIRELESS_EXT' any time now.
