This is good to do also in wl1251.

I don't like the fact that driver handles the retries, I prefer
mac80211 doing all that. But we can do it in the driver first and
later on add support to mac80211.

Looks good to me.

AFAIK wl1251 doesn't support this.

Again I would not like the driver to handle this, too much logic in
the driver for my taste. But maybe again as a first step to do this in
the driver and later on improve mac80211.

This is important. Denis Carikli already sent a patch for this, but I
haven't tested it yet.
