    netifd: call "wifi down" before "wifi up" · 19bf880b
    Jo-Philipp Wich authored
    When the underlying /etc/config/wireless got changed since the last "wifi up"
    has been performed, the uci vap ifname state vars become inconsistent on a
    subsequent "wifi up" and multiple vaps get mapped to the same ifnames which
    confuses the gui and other processes relying on them.
    
    For now call an explicit "wifi down" prior to each "wifi up" which will clear
    up the state accordingly.
