    mac80211: track receiver's aggregation reorder buffer size · 0b01f030

    The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
    buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
    buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
    the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
    instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
    isn't possible to honour this request.
    
    In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
    addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
    the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
    with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
    way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
    aggregates appropriately.
    
    Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
    addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
    updated separately to use this variable!
