Subject: iwlwifi: set max firmware version of 7265 to 17
From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@xxxxxxxxx>
commit ed0450cef00d2c76bcb8778721df947ba7ff4147 upstream.
Just like 7260, 7265 will not have firmware releases newer
than iwlwifi-7265-17.ucode. 7265D is still supported in
latest firmware releases.
