I was, but the conclusion is the same. The generate_xxatt_list is not relevant and only the last if
clause is important. The second argument to the second call to wireless_core_reset is just a
different way to say "non-zero".

I've been looking at the code for a while now, and I still don't see where the code doesn't match
the spec. Either it is a subtle point, or I'm not even close to sharp today.
