commit 819bda58e77bb67974f94dc1aa11b0556b6f6889 upstream.
Since commit 0a44dfc07074 ("wifi: mac80211: simplify non-chanctx
drivers") ieee80211_hw_config() is no longer called with changed = ~0.
rtlwifi relied on ~0 in order to ignore the default retry limits of
4/7, preferring 48/48 in station mode and 7/7 in AP/IBSS.
RTL8192DU has a lot of packet loss with the default limits from
mac80211. Fix it by ignoring IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_RETRY_LIMITS
completely, because it's the simplest solution.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
