Is it correct to send a nullfunc to the AP with PM=0 when there is no
buffered traffic and the TIM doesn't indicate anything for the station's AID ?
This was the concern raised.

The mac80211 mlme does a similar thing too, in ieee80211_rx_mgmt_beacon().
A nullfunc with PM=0 is sent only when the aid is set in the TIM IE.
