This allows drivers to request per-vif and per-sta-tid queues from which
they can pull frames. This makes it easier to keep the hardware queues
short, and to improve fairness between clients and vifs.
The task of scheduling packet transmission is left up to the driver -
queueing is controlled by

This is just one txq, the mcast one? Perhaps that should

This could be an interesting race. If you wake the queue, and then
