DosSetPriority (PRTYC_FOREGROUNDSERVER) really needed for wpa_supplicant?

In wpa_supplicant code I see -

// increas priority to keep the key exchange alive
DosSetPriority( PRTYS_PROCESS, PRTYC_FOREGROUNDSERVER , 0, ppib->pib_ulpid);

I remember various discussions about priority settings in different groups and I wonder if 
this is really needed for wpa_supplicant. Guess no. But this setting is in the code since 
ages. And the comment seems to indicate that there is/was a problem otherwise.

Of course I can change this value or leave it at regular and test. But handshake with 
access point and time to establish a connection depends on so much other things I fear 
testing with different machines takes forever.

Comments please. Steven?

Regards, Andreas
