From 83d5cc012441531ab0bf6f99881958e964e9cf11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2012 09:31:10 +0100 Subject: mac80211: station state transition error handling In the future, when we start notifying drivers, state transitions could potentially fail. To make it easier to distinguish between programming bugs and driver failures: * rename sta_info_move_state() to sta_info_pre_move_state() which can only be called before the station is inserted (and check this with a new station flag). * rename sta_info_move_state_checked() to just plain sta_info_move_state(), as it will be the regular function that can fail for more than just one reason (bad transition or an error from the driver) This makes the programming model easier -- one of the functions can only be called before insertion and can't fail, the other can fail.
