[PATCH 1/2] iwlwifi: Fix throughput stall issue in HT mode for 5000

[Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>]

From: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com>

Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended protection
mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design.

Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter
TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.
