| Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: improve AQL aggregation estimation for low data
 | |
|  rates
 | |
| 
 | |
| Links with low data rates use much smaller aggregates and are much more
 | |
| sensitive to latency added by bufferbloat.
 | |
| Tune the assumed aggregation length based on the tx rate duration.
