From: Prameela Rani Garnepudi <redacted> With BT support, driver has to handle two streams of data (i.e. wlan and BT). Actual coex implementation is in firmware. Coex module just schedule the packets to firmware by taking them from the corresponding paths. Structures for module and protocol operations are introduced for this purpose. Protocol operations structure is global structure which can be shared among different modules. Initialization of coex and operating mode values is moved to rsi_91x_init().

We used semaphore here, as USB/SDIO bus write operations could be blocking/waiting. I will check if spinlock suits here in follow up patch. It will need some testing.
Also calling it tx_bus_lock is IMHO misleading, tx_bus_sema would be nicer.
Sure. I will rename the variable Regards, Amitkumar
