 * LIM transmits the MGMT frame using the API:

 * HDD, via halTxFrame/DXE, "transfers" the packet over to BMU
 * HDD, if it determines that a TX completion routine (in this case

 * LIM will try to free the TX MGMT packet that was earlier allocated, in order
 * to send this MGMT frame, using the PAL API palPktFree( ... pData, pPacket )
 *
 * Assumptions:
 * Presently, this is ONLY being used for MGMT frames/packets
 * TODO:
 * Would it do good for LIM to have some sort of "signature" validation to
 * ensure that the pData argument passed in was a buffer that was actually
 * allocated by LIM and/or is not corrupted?
 *
 * Note: FIXME and TODO
