 * Helper struct and macro to work with moving/walking averages.
 * When adding a value to the average value the following calculation
 * is needed:
 *
 *        avg_rssi = ((avg_rssi * 7) + rssi) / 8;
 *
 * The advantage of this approach is that we only need 1 variable
 * to store the average in (No need for a count and a total).
 * But more importantly, normal average values will over time
 * move less and less towards newly added values this results
 * that with link tuning, the device can have a very good RSSI
 * for a few minutes but when the device is moved away from the AP
 * the average will not decrease fast enough to compensate.
 * The walking average compensates this and will move towards
 * the new values correctly allowing a effective link tuning,
 * the speed of the average moving towards other values depends
 * on the value for the number of samples. The higher the number
 * of samples, the slower the average will move.
 * We use two variables to keep track of the average value to
 * compensate for the rounding errors. This can be a significant
 * error (>5dBm) if the factor is too low.
