3 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix overflow issues in airtime fairness code
5 The airtime weight calculation overflows with a default weight value of 256
6 whenever more than 8ms worth of airtime is reported.
7 Bigger weight values impose even smaller limits on maximum airtime values.
8 This can mess up airtime based calculations for drivers that don't report
9 per-PPDU airtime values, but batch up values instead.
11 Fix this by reordering multiplications/shifts and by reducing unnecessary
12 intermediate precision (which was lost in a later stage anyway).
14 The new shift value limits the maximum weight to 4096, which should be more
15 than enough. Any values bigger than that will be rejected.
