4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sara Sharon <sara.sharon@xxxxxxxxx>
commit fad471860c097844432c7cf5d3ae6a0a059c2bdc upstream.
Currently mac80211 does not inform the driver of the window
size when starting an RX aggregation session.
To enable managing the reorder buffer in the driver or hardware
the window size is needed.
