I tried to understand the new 802.11 stack API and met some things I 
couldn't understand by just looking at the code.

My main question is currently struct ieee80211_txb. How is it meant to 
be used? How driver-specific is it - should it fit all drivers or does 
it assume some specific DMA set-up?
The ieee80211_txb should not be driver specific. ->fragments is struct
sk_buff, indicates the packet skb or the fragmentation skb list for
software based fragmentation. And others members are self explained.
Currently it fits the ipw* drivers (you see a reserved word is used), we
should change it to be more generic and provide enough info for every
wireless driver.

Thanks,
