291	  is a TDLS STA).

302	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to keep additional
303	  and very verbose statistics about TX and RX handler use
304	  as well as a few selected dot11 counters. These will be
305	  exposed in debugfs.
306
307	  Note that some of the counters are not concurrency safe
308	  and may thus not always be accurate.
309
310	  If unsure, say N.

316	  Setting this option to a low value (e.g. 4) allows testing the
317	  hash table with collisions relatively deterministically (just
318	  connect more stations than the number selected here.)
319
320	  If unsure, leave the default of 0.
