iwlagn: enable 11n aggregation without checking traffic load
Enable HT aggregation when it reach reasonable traffic without checking traffic load which delay enabling the aggregation and lower the throughput but this behavior can be overwrite by module parameter this address https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40042 Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
