No the mistake is on your side. FIFO is not relevant here. What is important is whether HW queue is full or not. Except the AC Back off scheduling done by FIFO there is BA protocol which my stall HW queue. It doesn't mean that other packets with the same FIFO should be stalled. You need additional SW queue that can be stopped.
