TX error due to colision or erroneous TX

Thanks for your reply.

Can you provide one more clarification.

Since 802.11 protocol requires ACK for every TX packet that means card
waits for the ACK. So, does this mean that interrupt TX_EXC is based on a
timeout (smaller and different from tx_timeout, which detects h/w lockups
or missing interrupts)
