Is this really the correct thing to do? Isn't that Wlantest.setup_done
shared through all test cases? What if the QoS mapping test cases get
run after a test case that used wlantest on another channel? If this
commit is trying to optimize test execution (the commit message should
really provide the reason for doing this change..), that would likely
need to be done by maintaining a local variable for the test case(s) in
question rather than relying on Wlantest.setup_done.
