From: Avri Altman <avri.altman@xxxxxxxxx>
A binding object associates virtual MACs to a Phy.
Binding object can ask (and get) air time, thus
allowing several MACs to share the medium.
A binding object can be in either one of 3 states:
1) standalone - A single active MAC
2) Different Channel Mode (DCM) - There are 2 active
MACs or more (not necessarily just clients), but each
has its own channel.
3) Same Channel Mode (SCM) - There are 2 active
MACs or more (not necessarily just clients), that
share the same channel.
This patch introduces an additional condition for enabling uAPSD:
uAPSD should be disabled for a client in DCM.
The reason for that is a low latency issue in Miracast.
