Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: improve AQL tx airtime estimation
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
AQL does not take into account that most HT/VHT/HE traffic is A-MPDU aggregated.
 | 
						|
Because of that, the per-packet airtime overhead is vastly overestimated.
 | 
						|
Improve it by assuming an average aggregation length of 16 for non-legacy
 | 
						|
traffic if not using the VO AC queue.
 | 
						|
This should improve performance with high data rates, especially with multiple
 | 
						|
stations
 | 
						|
