Based on the mac80211's TXQ implementation, TX-AMSDU can be used to get higher MAC efficiency. To make mac80211 aggregate MSDUs, low level driver just need to leave skbs in the TXQ, and mac80211 will try to aggregate them if possible. As driver will schedule a tasklet when the TX queue is woke, until the tasklet being served, there will have some skbs in the queue if traffic is heavy. Driver can control the max AMSDU size depending on the current bit rate used by hardware/firmware. The higher rates are used, the larger AMSDU size can be. It is tested that can achieve higher T-Put at higher rates. If the environment is relatively clean, and the bit_rate is high enough, we can get about 80Mbps improvement. For lower bit rates, not much gain can we get, so leave the max_amsdu length low to prevent aggregation.
