Subject: [PATCH 0/6] staging: rtl8192e: Remove action block acknowledgment

AP are learning very quickly that rtl8192e driver is handling block
acknowledgment (BA) not as expected.
The log of the driver is showing the following output:
rtl819xE 0000:03:00.0 wlan0: received DELBA while QOS or HT is not supported(0, 1)
Then AP are giving up.

Tested with rtl8192e (WLL6130-D99) in Mode n (12.5 MB/s)
Transferred this patch over wlan connection of rtl8192e.
