Heh, yep, the kernel part does not disable this if these are left out.
Actually, I can think of one downside to the approach you propose: when
this gets extended, there will be multiple different cqm parameters, and
they would have to be always configured simultaneously, otherwise some
of the configurations would end up disabled. At least with iw, that
would be somewhat awkward?
