Well, the ieee80211_fast_tx struct is not available in
ieee80211_tx_dequeue, and I need the offset there. I thought about
sticking it into ieee80211_tx_info, but that is kinda full, and since
the ieee80211_key_conf is already available there, carrying it there
seems to work.

What would be a better way to do this?
