Roman,

Need your help to bisect regression point. Can you try w/o 
CPTCFG_NET_SCH_FQ_CODEL?
If it does not help, try reverting below commits which are major changes in 
data path.
Instead of generating backports, apply revert commit on top your backports.

Subject: Re: ath10k performance, master branch from 20160407

Latest backports (compat-wireless) released (20160110) has codel
enabled (CPTCFG_NET_SCH_FQ_CODEL=y) and there are no openwrt patches
or special configuration for codel. And it runs ok.
How old commit do you want me to try?

Regards,
Roman
