    LinuxKPI: 802.11 Refine/add DTIM/TSF handling · c8dafefa
    Bjoern A. Zeeb authored
    Correct data types related to delivery traffic indication map (DTIM)/
    timing synchronization function (TSF) and implement/refine their
    handling.  This information is used/needed by iwlwifi to set a station
    as associated.  This will hopefully avoid more "no beacon heard"
    time event failures.
    
    The recording of the Linux specific sync_device_ts is done in the
    receive path for now in case we do have the right information
    available.  I need to investigate as to how-much it may make sense
    to also migrate it into net80211 in the future depending on the
    usage in other drivers (or how we did handle this in the past in
    natively ported versions, e.g. iwm).
