iwlagn: finer-grained HT disable
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
At least while debugging, a lot of people use
11n_disable=1 to disable HT completely. To be
able to figure out what parts of HT cause the
problems we see, make the parameter a bitmap,
allowing to disable all of HT and aggregation
(TX/RX) separately.
