Unfortunately, it was reported that this caused issues in our DMA engine. We don't fully understand how this is related, but this is being currently debugged. For now, just don't send this notification to the Rx queues. This de-facto reverts my commit 3c514bf831ac12356b695ff054bef641b9e99593: iwlwifi: mvm: add a loose synchronization of the NSSN across Rx queues This issue was reported here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204873 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205001 and others maybe.
