Strictly, both sides can attempt to initiate a switch. Both sides are
also allowed to refuse.

Provided the baseband supports it (check the features) and the link
manager has been told to allow it (check the link policy) then it
should be OK (barring a burst of radio noise that knocks out critical
radio packets - in which case, just try again).

Note that although you can read the features for both sides, you can
check only the local link policy. However, instead of all that, you may
as well just go ahead and try to switch.
