+
+Use a slightly different threshold for downgrading spatial streams to
+make it easier to calculate without divisions.
+Slightly reduces CPU overhead.

+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: replace rate stats ewma with a
+ better moving average
+
+Rate success probability usually fluctuates a lot under normal conditions.
+With a simple EWMA, noise and fluctuation can be reduced by increasing the
+window length, but that comes at the cost of introducing lag on sudden
+changes.
+
+This change replaces the EWMA implementation with a moving average that's
+designed to significantly reduce lag while keeping a bigger window size
+by being better at filtering out noise.
+
+It is only slightly more expensive than the simple EWMA and still avoids
+divisions in its calculation.
+
+The algorithm is adapted from an implementation intended for a completely
+different field (stock market trading), where the tradeoff of lag vs
+noise filtering is equally important.
+
+The algorithm works in the same way as the "smoothing filter" from
+http://www.stockspotter.com/files/PredictiveIndicators.pdf adapted for
+fixed-point math with some constants, using only addition, bit shifts
+and multiplication
+
+To better make use of the filtering and bigger window size, the update
+interval is cut in half.
+
+For testing, the algorithm can be reverted to the older one via debugfs
