In order to allow user space based control of listen interval, we use
available debugfs infrastructure. Listen interval implies how frequently
we want the WLAN chip to wake up and synchronize the beacons in case it
is in sleep mode. The user has to write the listen interval (in msecs) to
the listen_interval file in ath6kl debug directory. The minimum value is
15 and maximum is 5000.
Example:
echo "30" > listen_interval
This will make the listen interval approximately 30 msecs.
