Subject: mac80211: fix divide by zero when NOA update

From: "Janusz.Dziedzic@tieto.com" <Janusz.Dziedzic@tieto.com>

commit 519ee6918b91abdc4bc9720deae17599a109eb40 upstream.

In case of one shot NOA the interval can be 0, catch that
instead of potentially (depending on the driver) crashing
like this:

divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP
