I guess what Johannes meant is that you can send the genl message in
atomic context, so you don't need to save stuff and use the event work.
You can just send it immediately when cfg80211_inform_bss() and
cfg80211_inform_bss_frame() are called.

I'm not really sure you can send genl messages while atomic, I think I
had problems with that earlier, but you can try. ;)

Well I already did, and it's not working, when you"ll try to send genl messages while atomic, you will get kernel warning regarding "sleeping function called from invalid context".


Thanks,
Victor.
