Since packets sent to an RA / TID in AGG are sent from a separate HW Tx queue, we may get into a race: the regular queue isn't empty while we already begin to send packets from the AGG queue. This would result in sending packets out of order. In order to cope with this, mac80211 waits until the driver reports that the legacy queue is drained before it can send packets to the AGG queue. During that time, mac80211 buffers packets for the driver. These packets will be sent in order after the driver reports it is ready. The way this was implemented in the driver is as follows: We held a counter that monitors the number of packets for an RA / TID in the HW queues. When this counter reached 0, we knew that the HW queues were drained and we reported to mac80211 that were ready to proceed. This patch changes the implementation described above. We now remember what is the wifi sequence number of the first packet that will be sent in the AGG queue (lets' call it ssn). When we reclaim the packet before ssn, we know that the queue is drained, and we are ready to proceed. This will allow us to move this logic in the upper layer and eventually remove the tid_data from the shared area.
