There is an error in the logic of this parameter. To handle the critical cases,
the logic should enable clear interrupts, and allow the user to disable them if
that works OK. The problem is that the code makes the wrong test. At this
point, I'm not sure what change I should make.

In the meantime, you should edit /etc/modprobe.d/50-rtl8821ae.conf, and change
the blacklist line to say "options rtl8821ae int_clear=0".
