Because there is a limited number of tx buffers available, once the
queue has been filled to a certain point, ath9k needs to stop accepting

stopping another queue with fewer frames, this patch limits the number

some reserved frames to be used for other purposes (e.g. beacons).
Because tx buffers are reserved for frames when they're staged in
software queues as well, the actual queue depth cannot be used for
