 136  * enum wimax_st - The different states of a WiMAX device
 137  * @__WIMAX_ST_NULL: The device structure has been allocated and zeroed,
 138  *     but still wimax_dev_add() hasn't been called. There is no state.
 139  *
 140  * @WIMAX_ST_DOWN: The device has been registered with the WiMAX and
 141  *     networking stacks, but it is not initialized (normally that is
 142  *     done with 'ifconfig DEV up' [or equivalent], which can upload
 143  *     firmware and enable communications with the device).
 144  *     In this state, the device is powered down and using as less
 145  *     power as possible.
 146  *     This state is the default after a call to wimax_dev_add(). It
 147  *     is ok to have drivers move directly to %WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED
 148  *     or %WIMAX_ST_RADIO_OFF in _probe() after the call to
 149  *     wimax_dev_add().
 150  *     It is recommended that the driver leaves this state when
 151  *     calling 'ifconfig DEV up' and enters it back on 'ifconfig DEV
 152  *     down'.
 153  *
 154  * @__WIMAX_ST_QUIESCING: The device is being torn down, so no API
 155  *     operations are allowed to proceed except the ones needed to
 156  *     complete the device clean up process.
 157  *
 158  * @WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED: [optional] Communication with the device
 159  *     is setup, but the device still requires some configuration
 160  *     before being operational.
 161  *     Some WiMAX API calls might work.
 162  *
 163  * @WIMAX_ST_RADIO_OFF: The device is fully up; radio is off (wether
 164  *     by hardware or software switches).
 165  *     It is recommended to always leave the device in this state
 166  *     after initialization.
 167  *
 168  * @WIMAX_ST_READY: The device is fully up and radio is on.
 169  *
 170  * @WIMAX_ST_SCANNING: [optional] The device has been instructed to
 171  *     scan. In this state, the device cannot be actively connected to
 172  *     a network.
 173  *
 174  * @WIMAX_ST_CONNECTING: The device is connecting to a network. This
 175  *     state exists because in some devices, the connect process can
 176  *     include a number of negotiations between user space, kernel
 177  *     space and the device. User space needs to know what the device
 178  *     is doing. If the connect sequence in a device is atomic and
 179  *     fast, the device can transition directly to CONNECTED
 180  *
 181  * @WIMAX_ST_CONNECTED: The device is connected to a network.
 182  *
 183  * @__WIMAX_ST_INVALID: This is an invalid state used to mark the
 184  *     maximum numeric value of states.
 185  *
 186  * Description:
 187  *
 188  * Transitions from one state to another one are atomic and can only
 189  * be caused in kernel space with wimax_state_change(). To read the
 190  * state, use wimax_state_get().
 191  *
 192  * States starting with __ are internal and shall not be used or
 193  * referred to by drivers or userspace. They look ugly, but that's the
 194  * point -- if any use is made non-internal to the stack, it is easier
 195  * to catch on review.
 196  *
 197  * All API operations [with well defined exceptions] will take the
 198  * device mutex before starting and then check the state. If the state
 199  * is %__WIMAX_ST_NULL, %WIMAX_ST_DOWN, %WIMAX_ST_UNINITIALIZED or
 200  * %__WIMAX_ST_QUIESCING, it will drop the lock and quit with
 201  * -%EINVAL, -%ENOMEDIUM, -%ENOTCONN or -%ESHUTDOWN.
 202  *
 203  * The order of the definitions is important, so we can do numerical
 204  * comparisons (eg: < %WIMAX_ST_RADIO_OFF means the device is not ready
 205  * to operate).
 206  */
