From: Jouni Malinen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Start using 2 * listen_int * beacon_int as a timeout for PS buffered
unicast frames if that is longer than 10 seconds. Previously, we used
fixed 10 second limit regardless of the listen interval.
This fixes power saving for STAs that request very long listen
interval (over 10 seconds).
This was reported by UNH IOL 802.11 AP Base MAC Test Suite v2.4
Test #1.3.2 Part e.
While we are at it, remove the station from the TIM when the PS buffer is
empty.
