In order for the Fq_CoDel integrated in mac80211 layer operates effectively
to control excessive queueing latency, the CoDel algorithm requires an
accurate measure of how long the packets stays in the queue, aka sojourn
time. The sojourn time measured at mac80211 layer doesn't include queueing
This patch series implements Airtime-based Queue Limit (AQL) in the mac80211
and Ath10k driver. It is based on an earlier version from the ChromiumOS
tree[0].
This version has been tested with QCA9884 platform with 4.14 kernel. Tests show
AQL is able to reduce latency by an order of magnitude

Please CC ath10k patches to ath10k list, I doubt all ath10k developers
follow linux-wireless.

The memory of ar->debug.tpc_stats_final is reallocated every debugfs
reading, it should be freed in ath10k_debug_destroy() for the last
allocation.

If firmware reports rate_max > WMI_TPC_RATE_MAX(WMI_TPC_FINAL_RATE_MAX)
or num_tx_chain > WMI_TPC_TX_N_CHAIN, it will cause array out-of-bounds
access, so print a warning and reset to avoid memory corruption.
