    iwlwifi: mvm: Allow retries for probe responses · 8c739d8d
    Ilan Peer authored
    When hostapd sends a probe response, it does not request an
    acknowledgment on the probe response. This setting is propagated
    to the driver and FW from mac80211, and as a result probe responses
    are transmitted only once without retries. In congested
    environments, this reduces the likelihood for finding the AP.
    
    To overcome this, enable acknowledgment and retries for probe
    responses, even in case no acknowledgment is requested. In such
    a case the retry limit is set to 3.
