The airtime of a transmitted frame will be estimated from last used tx rate
which the firmware reports with the peer stats feature
(WMI_SERVICE_PEER_STATS). The airtime is computed on the tx path and it
will be reported to mac80211 upon tx completion.
This change is based on Kan's orginal commit in Chromium tree
("CHROMIUM: ath10k: Implementing airtime fairness based TX scheduler")
ref: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/588190
Tested on QCA4019 with firmware version 10.4-3.2.1.1-00015
Tested on QCA9984 with firmware version 10.4-3.9.0.1-00005

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.
