The sta_info hash is designed to deal with an AP
with lots of stations associated, or a station interface
connected to a single AP.

Given your other hash patches, does this even make sense still?

This handles the TX side for station VIFs.  The more complicated
hashing handles the rx logic.  I could use the hash
for the tx side, though performance is likely a small bit
worse since you have to deal with the hash logic.

And, if the more complicated RFC hashing patch has no upstream
chance anyway, then if the 'some-sta' patch is acceptable,
I'd still be interested in seeing it upstream.

Thanks,
Ben
