This reverts commit wcn->hw, CONNECTION_MONITOR.
The firmware keep-alive does not cause any event in case of error
such as non acked. It's just a basic keep alive to prevent the AP
to kick-off the station due to inactivity. So let mac80211 submit
its own monitoring packet (probe/null) and disconnect on timeout.
Note: We want to keep firmware keep alive to prevent kick-off
when host is in suspend-to-mem (no mac80211 monitor packet).
Ideally fw keep alive should be enabled in suspend path and disabled
in resume path to prevent having both firmware and mac80211 submitting
periodic null packets.
This fixes non detected AP leaving issues in active mode (nothing
monitors beacon or connection).

I'll queue this to v5.15.
Might want to hold off on that.
Its been reported by testing that wcn36xx_smd_delete_sta_context_ind()
actually _is_ firing.
But if you look at wcn36xx_smd_delete_sta_context_ind() it doesn't seem
to do ieee80211_connection_loss() like it presumably should.
I think the right fix here might be to call ieee80211_connection_loss()
in wcn36xx_smd_delete_sta_context_ind() if (wcn->hw & CONNECTION_MONITOR)
