+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: reduce unnecessary rate probing
+ attempts
+
+On hardware with static fallback tables (e.g. mt76x2), rate probing attempts
+can be very expensive.
+On such devices, avoid sampling rates slower than the per-group max throughput
+rate, based on the assumption that the fallback table will take care of probing
+lower rates within that group if the higher rates fail.
+To make this work, this also fixes a wrong initialization in the previously
+unused per-group sorted rate array.
+To further reduce unnecessary probing attempts, skip duplicate attempts on
+rates slower than the max throughput rate.

+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: improve rate probing for devices
+ with static fallback
+
+On some devices that only support static rate fallback tables sending rate
+control probing packets can be really expensive.
+Probing lower rates can already hurt throughput quite a bit. What hurts even
+more is the fact that on mt76x0/mt76x2, single probing packets can only be
+forced by directing packets at a different internal hardware queue, which
+causes some heavy reordering and extra latency.
+The reordering issue is mainly problematic while pushing lots of packets to
+a particular station. If there is little activity, the overhead of probing is
+neglegible.
+
+The static fallback behavior is designed to pretty much only handle rate
+control algorithms that use only a very limited set of rates on which the
+algorithm switches up/down based on packet error rate.
+
+In order to better support that kind of hardware, this patch implements a
+different approach to rate probing where it switches to a slightly higher rate,
+waits for tx status feedback, then updates the stats and switches back to
+the new max throughput rate. This only triggers above a packet rate of 100
+per stats interval (~50ms).
+For that kind of probing, the code has to reduce the set of probing rates
+a lot more compared to single packet probing, so it uses only one packet
+per MCS group which is either slightly faster, or as close as possible to
+the max throughput rate.
+This allows switching between similar rates with different numbers of
+streams. The algorithm assumes that the hardware will work its way lower
+within an MCS group in case of retransmissions, so that lower rates don't
+have to be probed by the high packets per second rate probing code.
+
+To further reduce the search space, it also does not probe rates with lower
+channel bandwidth than the max throughput rate.
+
+At the moment, these changes will only affect mt76x0/mt76x2.

+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: fix infinite loop because supported is
+ not being shifted
+
+Currently the for-loop will spin forever if variable supported is
+non-zero because supported is never changed. Fix this by adding in
+the missing right shift of supported.
+
+Addresses-Coverity: ("Infinite loop")
+Fixes: 48cb39522a9d ("mac80211: minstrel_ht: improve rate probing for devices with static fallback")
