static code analysis from cppcheck reports:

[drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8188ee/trx.c:322]:
  (error) Uninitialized variable: packet_beacon

packet_beacon is not initialized and hence packet_beacon
contains garbage from the stack, so set it to false.

This change should have a "Cc: Stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> [3.10+] notation.

Other than that, Acked-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>

John: Is it possible for you to add stable, or do you want Colin to resubmit.

Larry
