[PATCH 02/16] wcn36xx: Pad TIM PVM if needed
From: Bjorn Andersson
Date: Tue Mar 29 2016 - 02:06:53 EST
From: Pontus Fuchs <pontus.fuchs@xxxxxxxxx>
The wcn36xx FW expects a fixed size TIM PVM in the beacon template. If
supplied with a shorter than expected PVM it will overwrite the IE
following the TIM.
