Maybe just checking for is_open instead of STATUS_ALIVE will fix the is=
sue
too? I only had a quick look but it looks possible. AFAICS is_open indi=
cates
if the interface was taken up by mac80211. So if the interface is up bu=
t
STATUS_ALIVE is not set we want to restart the adapter after unkilling =
but
if the interface is still down (is_open=3D=3D0) we do not want to resta=
rt the
adapter. Furthermore, is_open is also set in case the interface was tak=
en
up but wireless was rfkilled.
