Hm this seems odd, why is it stopped here rather than when beaconing is
stopped? Or does it do both?

Can that warning really happen? It seems it should be checking
info->beacon_int rather than data->beacon_int? Why convert back and
forth?

Also the default here seems very very small, that's like less than 1ms
beacon interval (not even in TU)?
