Just want to be clear, which message flooding your system?
is
iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: Aggregation not enabled for tid
> 0 because load = 9
or
iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: iwlagn_tx_agg_start on ra = 00:0c:42:64:bb:1d
> tid = 0

the second message should only show once when the aggregation being establish. if you are seeing it every 35 seconds, that is bad.
but the first message is checking the traffic load is high enough to establish the aggregation queue, which is ok.
and we should not log this type of message as "ERROR", I will submit a patch to change that.
