ath9k: Fix beacon configuration for addition/removal of interfaces This patch fixes some issues with interface reconfiguration. It could for example happen that an AP interface in beacon slot 0 was removed leaving an IBSS station in one of the other slots. When this happens the driver never sends out the beacon as it only tries to send a beacon from slot 0. Appart from that the tracking of required changes to the beacon config is relatively complicated and prone to errors. The approach taken here is to solve reconfiguration issues is to reconfigure the beacons when any interface changes. This means that the complexity of deciding whether an interface change may modify the beacon configuration is gone. It also means that the beacon config will be reliably updated when an interface is removed. The issue that a single non-AP interface might not be in beacon slot 0 and wouldn't be send out is solved by moving it into the first slot. The TSF value in hardware is adjusted accordingly so that the timestamp of the beacons stay consistent.
