+/**
+ * DOC: Transport layer - what is it ?
+ *
+ * The tranport layer is the layer that deals with the HW directly. It provides
+ * an abstraction of the underlying HW to the upper layer. The transport layer
+ * doesn't provide any policy, algorithm or anything of this kind, but only
+ * mechanisms to make the HW do something.It is not completely stateless but
+ * close to it.
+ * We will have an implementation for each different supported bus.
+ */
+
+/**
+ * DOC: Life cycle of the transport layer
+ *
+ * The transport layer has a very precise life cycle.
+ *
+ * 1) A helper function is called during the module initialization and
+ * registers the bus driver's ops with the transport's alloc function.
+ * 2) Bus's probe calls to the transport layer's allocation functions.
+ * Of course this function is bus specific.
+ * 3) This allocation functions will spawn the upper layer which will
+ * register mac80211.
+ *
+ * 4) At some point (i.e. mac80211's start call), the op_mode will call
+ * the following sequence:
+ * start_hw
+ * start_fw
+ *
+ * 5) Then when finished (or reset):
+ * stop_fw (a.k.a. stop device for the moment)
+ * stop_hw
+ *
+ * 6) Eventually, the free function will be called.
