Thanks Ben. I guess we can't really know whether or not it would be
buggy with (QoS-)NDP, but it shouldn't be since all the frames are
expected (by firmware) to go through the same path anyhow and it's
responsible for putting them together into aggregates. And, unlike Intel
firmware/hardware, it can't necessarily assume that one HW queue
consists only of packets allowed for aggregation.
