Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/4] mac80211: call ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl() when dequeue
Date:   Thu, 20 May 2021 03:56:21 +0800
Message-ID: <a959135d3fe21118f38c33fc9ffb18124c1ef7ce.1621453091.git.ryder.lee@mediatek.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
Precedence: bulk

Make ieee80211_tx_h_rate_ctrl() get called on dequeue to improve
performance since it reduces the turnaround time for rate control.
