ath9k: Disable staggered Beacon frame scheduling
It looks like there are some issues in the current ath9k version as far as staggered Beacon frame scheduling is concerned. This results in Beacon frame timestamp being off by 25 milliseconds or so which can cause issues with multicast power save buffering in AP mode. Some client stations fail to receive multicast frames when there is this large an offset between TBTT and actual Beacon transmission time. Since ath9k does not yet support multiple BSSes anyway, the staggered Beacon frame scheduling is just increasing the number of interrupts at this point. The easiest fix for the timestamp offset is to disable staggered Beacon frames for now. We need to redesign beacon.c anyway when adding multi-BSS support with mac80211 since the existing code depends on different mechanism for Beacon frame transmission.
