It seems I don't have sufficient understanding about what the 1st patch
is doing. Currently the low-level configuration is done by ccw_init
which needs to extract info from NM (NetworkManager) connection files.
Does I understand it correctly that there will be no need for invoke
ccw_init after applying the 1st patch because the configuration is
now persistent?
Oh, please ignore this question as well. The answer is obvious since
you've already tested the change.
