ath9k: change maximum software retransmission handling
Instead of limiting a subframe to 10 A-MPDU software transmission attempts, count hardware retransmissions as well and raise the limit a bit. That way there will be fewer software retransmission attempts when traffic suffers from lots of hardware retransmissions. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.
