To enable the mac80211 fast-tx feature, the hw/driver needs to support
dynamic power saving and fragmentation. Since our driver does not
need to fragment packet into smaller pieces, we just hook an empty
callback of set_frag_threshold to avoid fragmentation in mac80211.

After this, the mac80211 will not fragment the packets and can transmit
them faster by cache the header information.

NACK. Please refer to earlier discussion [1].

Regards,
Arend
