Do you think "This callback is optional. Only use it, if your hardware/

Or do you volunteer for adding one or two DOC entries about APs, BC & MC Buffering,
TIM and station filters mechanism, caveats, and available callbacks or solutions?
Incidentally, I was entirely wrong about the sta_notify callback being
allowed to sleep, it's not, it's under a spinlock, and, more
importantly, RCU read lock for station removal (and this cannot be
changed). Must have been wishful thinking...
