Subject[ 39/69] iwlwifi: disable the buggy chain extension feature in HW
3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>

commit d012d04e4d6312ea157b6cf19e9689af934f5aa7 upstream.

This feature has been reported to be buggy and enabled by
default. We therefore need to disable it manually.
