Subject: rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix errors in parameter initialization

From: Larry Finger <[email protected]>

commit 78bae1de422a7f6f2b4b61f6a5c379e3d7f96f44 upstream.

This driver failed to copy parameters sw_crypto and disable_watchdog into the locations actually used by the driver. In addition, msi_support was initialized three times and one of them used the wrong variable. The initialization of parameter int_clear was moved so that it is near that of the rest of the parameters.
