I prefer this version 1) if there really is a chanctx that can be in use and reserved at the same time, it seems strange to mix the two concepts for the actual operation of the chanctx 2) semantically, the reservation is so that nothing can steal the chanctx, we don't really care much about the contents until we need it. Please resend with [PATCH] and I'll merge it. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
