[PATCH] mac80211: minstrel_ht: set default tx aggregation timeout to 0
The value 5000 was put here with the addition of the timeout field to ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session. It was originally added in mac80211 to save resources for drivers like iwlwifi, which only supports a limited number of concurrent aggregation sessions. Since iwlwifi does not use minstrel_ht and other drivers don't need this, 0 is a better default - especially since there have been recent reports of aggregation setup related issues reproduced with ath9k. This should improve stability without causing any adverse effects.
