However, it's still an issue, depending on how many links a station has and how much per-link data there is. Thus, for now, disable per-link statistics entirely. A complete fix will need to take this into account, make it opt-in by userspace, and change the dump format to be able to split a single station's data across multiple netlink dump messages, which all together is too much development for a fix.
