  yes, its name-space server. Will put it explicitly.

   In this case we are talking about a client connecting/sending to QRTR
   socket and the 'NS' doing a qrtr_bind during its init. There is
   possibility that a client tries to send to the 'NS' before  processing
   the ENETRESET. In the case of a NEW_SERVER control message will
   reach the 'NS' and be forwarded to the firmware. The client will then
   process the ENETRESET closing and re-opening the socket which triggers
   a DEL_SERVER and then a second NEW_SERVER. This scenario will give an
   unnecessary disconnect to the clients on the firmware who were able to
   initialize on the first NEW_SERVER.

   Also about the patch #2, i guess QRTR_BYE/DEL_PROC should also be
   broadcasted, right now we are only listening on DEL_PROC sent by
   legacy kernels like SDX modems. Without that modem SSR feature is
   broken on IPQ + SDX targets.

  yup, will be removed in V2.
