Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: add flag to indicate
missing/inaccurate tx A-MPDU length
Some hardware (e.g. MediaTek MT7603) cannot report A-MPDU length in tx status
information. Add support for a flag to indicate that, to allow minstrel_ht
to use a fixed value in its internal calculation (which gives better results
than just defaulting to 1).
