hi,i try to modify cfg80211_mgd_wext_siwfreq to 
allow for the following situation 
(just a test scenario) :
- client is associated with an ap on channel x
- client switches to channel y but keeps association context
- client switches back to channel x and communicates with ap again

by now, i just modified cfg80211_mgd_wext_siwfreq in order 
to switch the channel regardless of the state of the wdev. 
however, wext tools receive the EBUSY from the driver.
up to now, i could not figure out which part of the 
driver is responsible for this behaviour.

anyone has a hint or an idea what could be done to allow
the driver to accept the above situation ?
(at the moment, current tx or rx management, i.e. stopping 
queues or dropping packets is not yet considered).

regards,
torsten
