I have a question regarding the enabling and disabling the radio in this new layout. Previously the open() and stop() methods in ieee80211_hw had been deprecated and the driver should enable or disable the radio based on the add_interface and remove_interface() functions. Now that the driver should provide open() and stop() for the netdevice structure does this mean that these 2 methods are back in control for enabling and disabling the radio? And if so what should the add_interface and remove_interface, should they be only in charge of triggering some configuration changes (like mode and mac address)?
