It's more based on what the driver(s) is/are doing which is not your
change but is the one (back on May 31) which caused this change to be
needed. Client reregister takes precedence over LID change so client
reregister needs to do everything LID change does and possibly more.

Your change looks fine to me. 

What about local_sa ? Does it need this change too ?
