[OpenWrt-Devel] RFT: ar71xx/mac80211 update

[Tom Psyborg]

Why dropping 4.9 support right away?!? I've already tried 4.14 without
mac80211 update and got approximately 20Mbps less throughput on wifi than
with 4.9. If the 4.18 mac80211 update doesn't bring in some of the
peformance lost, I wouldn't even consider 4.14 kernel as a baseline for
anything.
