[PATCH 24/28] wifi: mac80211: don't clear DTIM period after setting it

[Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Fix the code that sets the DTIM period to always propagate it
into link->conf->dtim_period and not overwrite it, while still
preferring to set it from the beacon data if available.
