[PATCH 08/19] staging: wfx: fix support for BSS_CHANGED_KEEP_ALIVE
From: Jerome Pouiller
Date: Fri Apr 10 2020 - 09:34:46 EST
From: JÃrÃme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@xxxxxxxxxx>
Chip firmware is able to send periodic null frames to keep the
association with the AP.
The driver arbitrary set this period to 30sec. We prefer to rely on
BSS_CHANGED_KEEP_ALIVE that provide a true value.
Note that if BSS_CHANGED_KEEP_ALIVE is not received, we just disable
keep_alive feature. It is not very disturbing since AP will probably
ping the station before to disconnect it.
