Hi,

I just found that iwlwifi has its own queue allocation scheme
(iwl4965_txq_ctx_activate_free) when mac80211 already takes care of
that. Why, and why did you add code for that to mac80211 at all then?

 These are for hw queues book keeping. There is no ex exactly 1:1
mapping between HW and SW queues.
