Oh, sorry - I commented on that but failed to read the cover letter
first. My bad.

Overall you're off on a good start I think - see the comments I had on
the patches.

I'm hoping that drivers implementing this won't actually need any
station entries. Apart from that, it's unclear to me how the bitrate is
selected, are there even different bitrates?
