I cannot say for sure that it helped. I have now disactivated the
powersave features of the driver and all my problems disappeared.
The only thing I can say for sure is that my deconnections were detected
by this part of the code, as the error message was
"rtlwifi:rtl_watchdog_wq_callback():<0-0> AP off, try to reconnect now",
and that this bugs seems to increase the probability to take the 'wrong'
branch.
Anyway, I think this line is missplaced: why would lines 1433-1434 use
rtlpriv->link_info.num_rx_inperiod if its value is always 0 ?
