Older firmware may not support legacy TX push properly and may not
be disabling it.  So we check certain firmware versions that may
have this problem and disable legacy TX push unconditionally.

For the future this commit message should have been clearer on user
impact. What are the symptoms? Will the TX hang because of this? 
Will the performance be low?
