The stations hold the ath_node, which holds the tid
and other xmit logic structures. In order to debug
stuck xmit logic, we need a way to print out the tid
state for the stations.

v1 -> v2: Use linked list instead of array. Protect with spinlock.
Again, see my comments about the # STAs limit. I think this can go in
as a cfg80211 driver limitation which can be exposed. If you want to go
over the supported number (known to work, safe, call it what you want)
then a kconfig option can be used.
Either way, it's a separate patch.
The last thing I want to do is to make it harder to reproduce bugs,
so if 60 causes issues, and we made the default limit to 32,
then it just makes it that much harder for someone to reproduce
bugs and fix them (twiddle kconfig, re-compile kernel, etc).
I surely can't stop you from putting in a similar patch, but
I'm going to focus my own efforts on fixing problems I've already
found.
Thanks,
Ben
