Maybe further refactoring... > Looking over the v2 of this series you send, and over wilc_wfi_cfgoperations.c, and remembering your last question on this patch, I was thinking that one suggestion for this would be to replace last_scanned_shadow with just scanned_shadow or nw_info or scanned_nw_info. Just an idea.
