Oh, right, it's adding, I missed that. But is that really useful?

It provides a summary for AP, and precise stats for managed station
mode (excepting TDLS where it may return sums, it seems).

I just have a feeling that people will rely on it working for managed mode, and will forget about TDLS since it's uncommon now ... so I really don't think this
will work well with people's (even yours!) expectations.

Ok, how about for managed mode, I will find the first non-TDLS station
matching the netdev, assign the values, and then quit looking for more
stations.

For all other modes, logic stays the same as it is now
(add all stations' stats together as long as the station belongs
to the netdev)?

Thanks,
Ben
