BTW, I noticed a few bugs while looking at the qdisc handling in
wireless-dev:

- wme_qdiscop_enqueue doesn't increment q.qlen for packets queued
  to q->requeued[], which might cause upper layer code to stop
  dequeueing if q.qlen reaches zero.

- classify_1d doesn't care about tc_classify return values.
  tc_classify may decide to steal packets, drop them, etc. In case
  of stolen packets this causes use-after-free, otherwise just
  malfunctions.

- classify_1d returns res.class if it is != -1, which can never happen
  (except with an empty classifier list because of the explicit
  initialization, but you should check the return code) since ->get()
  and ->bind_tcf() both return 0 for invalid classes and the classid
  otherwise. There's also an off-by-one, classids start at one, so it
  should return res.class - 1 (or better res.classid - 1, which is
  meant to be a numerical identifier).

- wme_discop_destroy leaks classifier module references and memory
  when destroying classifiers, it should use tcf_destroy()

Considering that it is possibly and may be desirable to attach a
different qdisc than the built-in multiband qdisc, it might also
make sense to split the 80211 specific classification in a seperate
classifier module to allow simple classification of management traffic
with other qdiscs.
