commit eca1e56ceedd9cc185eb18baf307d3ff2e4af376 upstream.

Old firmware versions don't support this command. Sending it
to any firmware before -41.ucode will crash the firmware.

This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201975

Fixes: 66e839030fd6 ("iwlwifi: fix wrong WGDS_WIFI_DATA_SIZE")
