+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix memory accounting with A-MSDU aggregation
+
+fq uses skb->truesize for memory usage tracking. Increments/decrements
+are done on enqueue/dequeue.
+When A-MSDU aggregation is performed on tx side, the packet is
+aggregated with the last packet in the queue belonging to the same flow.
+There are multiple bugs here:
+- The truesize field of the aggregated packet isn't updated, so memory
+usage is underestimated
+- fq->memory_usage isn't adjusted.
+
+Because of the combination of both bugs, this only causes tx issues in
+rare cases, mainly when the A-MSDU head needs to be reallocated.
+
+Fix this by adjusting both truesize of the A-MSDU head and adding the
+truesize delta to fq->memory_usage.
