Hmm. The error one seems mostly reasonable, I guess, but do we really
not having anything that's the total number of MPDUs already?

And then, I guess, what exactly would you want there? We might not
always even be able to provide that?

I'm also left wondering what the application here is - perhaps another
thing we could just implement in BPF with the hooks I previously posted
(but admittedly never finished)?
