+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: reduce fluctuations in rate
+ probability stats
+
+In some scenarios when there is a lot of fluctuation in packet error rates,
+rate switching can be amplified when the statistics get skewed by time slots
+with very few tries.
+Make the input data to the moving average more smooth by adding the
+success/attempts count from the last stats window as well. This has the
+advantage of smoothing the data without introducing any extra lag to sampling
+rates.
+This significantly improves rate stability on a strong test link subjected to
+periodic noise bursts generated with a SDR

+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: rework rate downgrade code and
+ max_prob rate selection
+
+The current fallback code for fast rate switching on potentially failing rates
+is triggering too often if there is some strong noise on the channel. This can
+lead to wild fluctuations in the rate selection.
+Additionally, switching down to max_prob_rate can create a significant gap down
+in throughput, especially when using only 2 spatial streams, because max_prob_rate
+is limited to using fewer streams than the max_tp rates.
+In order to improve throughput without reducing reliability too much, use the
+rate downgrade code for the max_prob_rate only, and allow the non-downgraded
+max_prob_rate to use as many spatial streams as the max_tp rates
