(ath5k: remove conf->beacon_int usage)
removed bintval setting from ath5k_config. We need to init the
interval earlier and don't touch it in add_interface anymore.

Otherwise it will be set only once by upper layer through
bss_info_changed but not on second and further hostap executions.

We ended up having bintval 1000 which rendered the AP useless on
many clients.
