iwlwifi: disable TX AMPDU by default for iwldvm
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
NICs supported by iwldvm don't handle well TX AMPDU.
Disable it by default, still leave the possibility to
the user to force enable it with a debug parameter.

NICs supported by iwlmvm don't suffer from the same issue,
leave TX AMPDU enabled by default for these.
