+# Description:
+#   Finalizes newly created WiFi AccessPoint instances in the dmmap_wireless
+#   configuration.
+#
+#   An AccessPoint instance is considered a *new instance* when the option
+#   __is_new__ exists and its value is "1".
+#
+#   New instance handling logic:
+#
+#     • The AccessPoint's controller-side section name is obtained from
+#       the section_name option.
+#
+#     • For new instances where section_name comes from "mapcontroller.":
+#           - Remove __is_new__
+#           - No additional actions required
+#
+#     • For new instances where section_name comes from "wireless.":
+#           - Set mapcontroller=0 (indicates mapcontroller reload is not required)
+#           - Remove __is_new__
+#
+#     • For all other prefixes:
+#           - Remove __is_new__ only
+#
+#   After all new instances are processed, the dmmap_wireless configuration is committed.
