The previous commit added the ability to throttle stations when they queue too much airtime in the hardware. This commit enables the functionality by calculating the expected airtime usage of each packet that is dequeued from the TXQs in mac80211, and accounting that as pending airtime. The estimated airtime for each skb is stored in the tx_info, so we can subtract the same amount from the running total when the skb is freed or recycled. The throttling mechanism relies on this accounting to be accurate (i.e., that we are not freeing skbs without subtracting any airtime they were accounted for), so we put the subtraction into ieee80211_report_used_skb(). As an optimisation, we also subtract the airtime on regular TX completion, zeroing out the value stored in the packet afterwards, to avoid having to do an expensive lookup of the station from the packet data on every packet. This patch does *not* include any mechanism to wake a throttled TXQ again, on the assumption that this will happen anyway as a side effect of whatever freed the skb (most commonly a TX completion).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
