This is awesome news! This means that it will be included in the first stable release that they have planned in the near future :)
Now the following question might sound stupid, but how difficult would it be to apply these airtime fairness principles to Ath10k as well?
Is this planned? Or will this be a Ath9k feature only?

The patch has also been accepted into LEDE and is currently in Felix'
staging tree at
https://git.lede-project.org/?p=lede/nbd/staging.git;a=summary - so if
nothing surprising shows up, it should make it into the regular LEDE
nightlies before too long :)

It's escaped out of Felix's tree and is now in master.  Snapshots will start to have that as default as the buildbots do their thang.

Not a bad present really :-)
