mac80211_hwsim: report fixed signal strength
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There's no reason to think that hwsim has any
actual signal strength, but for testing it is
very useful to have it report _some_ value to
the stack so I can see if the value ends up
being reported correctly
