Change subject: Store subscriber's cell identity in ran_conn
......................................................................


Patch Set 6:

(1 comment)

Meta: AFAIK we already store the entire CGI in the vlr_subscr?
maybe we should instead drop the LAC info from struct ran_conn completely?
(code looks like we are never storing the CI part of vls_subscr->cgi, that 
would be nice to fix)

Meta meta: in the course of inter-MSC HO I am refactoring what the ran_conn 
represents, so I'd prefer to park this patch and revisit after the inter-MSC 
changes, to avoid merge conflicts and back-and-forths.

PS2, Line 320:  case CELL_IDENT_CI:
a CELL_IDENT_CI is *only* a CI without a LAC; since any CI number can be 
re-used within each LAC, the CELL_IDENT_CI is intrinsically ambiguous.
I'm not sure who thought of specifying this Cell Identifier type, maybe it 
makes sense if your network has only one LAC??
Haven't seen it used anywhere.

I think it's okay to require a LAC, so I'd rather drop the FIXME comment.
