2.6.35-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Felix Fietkau <[email protected]> commit 8bc8aecdc5e26cfda12dbd6867af4aa67836da6a upstream. This field is used to determine the inactivity time. When in AP mode, hostapd uses it for kicking out inactive clients after a while. Without this patch, hostapd immediately deauthenticates a new client if it checks the inactivity time before the client sends its first data frame.
