+ * Locking...
+ * ----------
+ *
+ * Thanks to Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> for fixing
+ * the locking issue in here and implementing this code !
+ *
+ * The issue : wireless_send_event() is often called in interrupt context,
+ * while the Netlink layer can never be called in interrupt context.
+ * The fully formed RtNetlink events are queued, and then a tasklet is run
+ * to feed those to Netlink.
+ * The skb_queue is interrupt safe, and its lock is not held while calling
+ * Netlink, so there is no possibility of dealock.
