How did you verify that? For unicast frames with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK
set you will still see an ACK on the air (since the peer has to
generate it according
to the 802.11 spec). The only thing this flag does is to advise the hardware to
ignore a missing ACK and hence to not retry the frame in this case ...
