These statistics are going to be completely useless for most people and they'll waste some memory/cpu cycles, especially on small-cache devices. I think it's much more useful to simply pass the information to mac80211 via rx flags and get them added to the radiotap header. I'd like to keep the number of 'poor man's debug hacks' in the driver to a minimum, and there are some other things that I think should be removed: rx_frags and rx_beacons in struct ath_rx_stats, the tx/rx MAC sampling hack, and pretty much anything else that can be just as easily accessed from mac80211 through regular interfaces.
