The idea would be:

 * station A detects a Radar, and informs userspace
 * userspace of station A will initiate a CSA, kernel will execute it (action 
frame, beacons)
 * station B picks up the CSA, and executes it as well
 * station B also marks the channel as unavailable
 * both station A and station B will send an event to userspace once the 
channel switch is complete

I've got some patches for wpa_supplicant here, but they are still quite dirty
