This new-beacon-int 100 seems strange and suspicious. Why is it even
trying to look at this? Hmm.

We should be doing this, we should end up in __cfg80211_stop_ap() and
that does clear it? Hmm... perhaps this _fails_ somehow, and we don't
clear it in the error path? I suppose we really should make that
unconditional because there's nothing we can do to recover from that
error ...
