For normal slot time: 364
For short slot time: 	342

So for normal slot time this would be correct, but it wouldn't for short slot time,
legacy driver seems to have hardcoded the value to 364. So for now I think it is
best to keep it hardcoded like that, and experiment a bit later to see what the
impact will for short slot time.

(Note that rt61/rt73 will use 364 as EIFS and always uses a short slot time)
