Are you also going to split this into multiple thresholds later? Perhaps just consider that today already? > + * @set_sta_mon_txrate_config: Configure low and high TXRATE threshold in 100kbs > + * for a connected station.

But I guess drivers/mac80211 can transform them somehow at configuration time, e.g. by building a bitmap. johannes
