NAK from me on this one. I do not want the driver to check two
locations. That is what userspace can work around.

If we want to unify the location between the WiFi driver and the
Bluetooth driver, I am fine with that, but seriously, just pick one over
the other. I do not care which one.

Regards

Marcel
