This new attributes introduced as per the previous discussion.

Is my understanding correct ?

Yeah ok ... I'm thinking perhaps we could share some part of it, but
it's not really worth making it more complex due to that.

Sure, i'll reuse those cqm attributes and event notification enum as well.

No, the list and the rssi_config structure is for multi threshold value
and not for single threshold.

Yeah, though I'm still not sure why we need the single threshold thing
at all.
For taking steering kind of decision single threshold value can be used to monitor
the station's rssi.

List should always be a superset.

I believe superset you meant will accept a signle threshold configuration also from user ?
If so, we can remove the single threshold api implementation.

Thanks,
Tamizh.
