The commit message says it already, so v8 drops the comment.

Agreed. v8 reads the high word once more and, if it changed, the low
word again; no loop.

Will do, all three.

Yes. In v8 rtw_fw_csa_queue() takes a start argument and reads the TSF
once: on start it takes the next TBTT, or the one just passed within
the margin, and the countdown work adds an interval as before.
