+ * ieee80211_set_active_links - set active links in client mode
+ * @vif: interface to set active links on
+ * @active_links: the new active links bitmap
+ *
+ * This changes the active links on an interface. The interface
+ * must be in client mode (in AP mode, all links are always active),
+ * and @active_links must be a subset of the vif's valid_links.
+ *
+ * If a link is switched off and another is switched on at the same
+ * time (e.g. active_links going from 0x1 to 0x10) then you will get
+ * a sequence of calls like
+ * - change_vif_links(0x11)
+ * - unassign_vif_chanctx(link_id=0)
+ * - change_sta_links(0x11) for each affected STA (the AP)
+ * (TDLS connections on now inactive links should be torn down)
+ * - remove group keys on the old link (link_id 0)
+ * - add new group keys (GTK/IGTK/BIGTK) on the new link (link_id 4)
+ * - change_sta_links(0x10) for each affected STA (the AP)
+ * - assign_vif_chanctx(link_id=4)
+ * - change_vif_links(0x10)
+ *
+ * Note: This function acquires some mac80211 locks and must not
+ * be called with any driver locks held that could cause a
+ * lock dependency inversion. Best call it without locks.
