Summary:                    priexclusive parameter ignored if pri = pri_cpe ?
Description: 
Hi,

there's a special reason why the priexclusive param is used only if the
pri is pri_net ?

Looking to this snippet of code (both in chan_zap and chan_dahdi):

**************************
                /* Add support for exclusive override */
                if (p->priexclusive)
                        exclusive = 1;
                else {
                /* otherwise, traditional behavior */
                        if (p->pri->nodetype == PRI_NETWORK)
                                exclusive = 0;
                        else
                                exclusive = 1;
                }
**************************

Seems that the exclusive is always true if the pri is PRI_CPE ?
There's a special reason for that?

Many telcos requires that the channel selection on CPE side must NOT be
exclusive...

I don't know if there's some drawback into setting exclusive = 0 even when
PRI_CPE is selected.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
It's possible that I'm misreading the code, but it looks like the channel
selection on the CPE side is set to be non-exclusive. This setting occurs
in q931_setup in libpri. I'm not confident about this though. Will have to
do some testing.
