[PATCH wireless-next v3 2/4] wifi: mac80211: estimate expected throughput if not provided by driver/rc

[Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>]

Estimate the tx throughput based on the expected per-packet tx time.
This is useful for mesh implementations that rely on expected throughput,
e.g. 802.11s or batman-adv.
