In AP mode, it seems that 3.17-ish kernels (at least) always set station kickout
to hard-coded value of 50.
Is this something that should be configurable? Maybe a module parameter
if nothing else?
Thanks,
Ben

Or should we add this to nl80211/cfg80211/mac80211? I would guess other
drivers also have similar functionality.

I guess that is up to Johannes. Do we really gain anything useful by letting
firmware take care of this? Might be best to just disable the firmware option
entirely and let the rest of the mac80211 stack take care of detecting
loss of connectivity?
Thanks,
