"DQA" is shorthand for "dynamic queue allocation". This enables on-demand allocation of queues per RA/TID rather than statically allocating per vif, thus allowing a potential benefit of various factors. Please refer to the DOC section this patch adds to sta.h to see a more in-depth explanation of this feature. There are many things to take into consideration when working in DQA mode, and this patch is only one in a series. Note that default operation mode is non-DQA mode, unless the FW indicates that it supports DQA mode. This patch enables support of DQA for a station connected to an AP, and works in a non-aggregated mode. When a frame for an unused RA/TID arrives at the driver, it isn't TXed immediately, but deferred first until a suitable queue is first allocated for it, and then TXed by a worker that both allocates the queues and TXes deferred traffic. When a STA is removed, its queues goes back into the queue pools for reuse as needed.
