 * Default parameters for the rate control algorithm.  These are
 * all tunable with sysctls.  The rate controller runs periodically
 * (each ath_rateinterval ms) analyzing transmit statistics for each
 * neighbor/station (when operating in station mode this is only the AP).
 * If transmits look to be working well over a sampling period then
 * it gives a "raise rate credit".  If transmits look to not be working
 * well than it deducts a credit.  If the credits cross a threshold then
 * the transmit rate is raised.  Various error conditions force the
 * the transmit rate to be dropped.
 *
 * The decision to issue/deduct a credit is based on the errors and
 * retries accumulated over the sampling period.  ath_rate_raise defines
 * the percent of retransmits for which a credit is issued/deducted.
 * ath_rate_raise_threshold defines the threshold on credits at which
 * the transmit rate is increased.
 *
 * XXX this algorithm is flawed.
