Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: fix ad-hoc mode beacon selection
Date: Mon, 16 May 2011 23:22:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1305580920-2021-1-git-send-email-nbd@openwrt.org> (raw)

In ad-hoc mode, beacon timers are configured differently compared to AP
mode, and (depending on the scenario) can vary enough to make the beacon
tasklet not detect slot 0 based on the TSF.
Since staggered beacons are not (and cannot be) used in ad-hoc mode, it
makes more sense to just hardcode slot 0 here, avoiding unnecessary
TSF reads and calculations.
