You really like abbreviations? I think it wouldn't hurt to make these
more verbose :)

Docs? But then again, see further down.

abbreviations in the method are one thing, but in the docs?

I think you should just pass the RSSI value instead of this odd level.
If you can't do that, then at least rename cqm_level to
cqm_rssi_threshold_reached or something?

Using a u8 for RSSI isn't really a great thing to do, I think. Can't we
just use s32 (aka u32)?
