What if you've got multiple consumers, wouldn't that mess up the survey results? I mean, for example mac80211 and/or hostapd might want to use the busy time statistics for the BSS load IE while a different userspace process might want to monitor the channel utilization in order to detect a worsening channel condition. If the consumers happen to use the same interval and request the survey very soon after each other one consumer will get the values on a nice (close to the query interval) time base while the other one will get the values based on a very small interval (which might lower the value's representativeness).
