In terms of disabling classification and always using best effort, always passing NULL here to the classifier will do the trick. http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/mac80211/wme.c#L218 At first glance it does not appear to have *any* default, which implies that rrul and rrul_be will be equiv

The approach that's in all of the Cisco documentation (FWIW) about such things for wired networks is that the higher-priority traffic classes for VoIP and video are also bandwidth limited to a fraction of the total (and less than a majority, at that). But that's in an environment where you _can_gu
