Well, finding a common and minimally invasive (re)naming scheme would be good.
...
I not only read it but tested it extensively against the ath9k stock,
ath10k stock, ath10k -michal's fqmac 3.5 patches, and your ath9k
patches...

After losing my temper at the impact of channel scans...

( https://plus.google.com/u/0/107942175615993706558/posts/WA915Pt4SRN
), I got told how to get rid of them for testing, and started redoing
the work when I got back from vacation. The reductions in latency
without a decline in throughput were wonderful vs stock in all cases.

The latency reductions at lower rates and speed of response to rate
changes was not what I'd hoped for, but given all the other pieces
flying in loose formation (like the need for an airtime fair scheduler
also), I'm still pretty happy.

(More plots and data in that directory and in the channel_scan directory.)

At the moment however I plan to pause until cleaner patch sets arrive....
...
qdisc->peek like function? A bitmap that says these stations have data
outstanding?
