    mac80211: fixup AIFSN instead of disabling WMM · 730a7550

    Disabling WMM has a huge impact these days. It implies that
    HT and VHT will be disabled which means that the throughput
    will be drammatically reduced.
    Since the AIFSN is a transmission parameter, we can play a
    bit and fix it up to make it compliant with the 802.11
    specification which requires it to be at least 2.
    Increasing it from 1 to 2 will slightly reduce the
    likelyhood to get a transmission opportunity compared to
    other clients that would accept to set AIFSN=1, but at
    least it will allow HT and VHT which is a huge gain.
