Does it makes sense to enforce enablement of at least one driver ?

Another option would be to add DRIVER_NONE to the list of drivers,
and enable it by default if no other actual wired/wireless driver
has been selected. According to example hostapd.conf only 'none'
driver is needed if hostapd is built as a standalone RADIUS server.

Sergey
