Last year, mac80211 softqueues were re-enabled for ath10k devices in LEDE, which brought back fq_codel support, but did not improve latency under load.

Is this latency under load still an issue today?

I've tried a bunch of setups: standard firmware, CT firmware, CT

Both CT and default firmware have low throughput with this patch.

It's been committed in LEDE

Ah! So it should be in current nightlies. I'll flash an Archer C7 and
see if there are any issues. Anyone else care to test out the current
nightly? :)

So testing it, I see no difference in throughput on my Archer C7; my
802.11ac-capable phone gets ~200 Mbps and my 802.11n laptop around 80.
However, there's no improvement in latency under load either. Meh...

Plot attached.
