  * @TXDONE_UNKNOWN: Hardware could not determine success of transmission.
  * @TXDONE_SUCCESS: Frame was successfully send
- * @TXDONE_FALLBACK: Frame was successfully send using a fallback rate.
+ * @TXDONE_FALLBACK: Hardware used fallback rates for retries
  * @TXDONE_FAILURE: Frame was not successfully send
  * @TXDONE_EXCESSIVE_RETRY: In addition to &TXDONE_FAILURE, the
  *	frame transmission failed due to excessive retries.
