Yes, packet queueing is handled in firmware. This makes sense especially when we enable 802.11 encap
offload support where most of the data path processing in mac80211 will be skipped and packet is given
to driver/firmware in 802.3 format itself. Then firmware would take care of all the classification,
queueing and encapsulation operations.
