This reverts commit 09ebb810927a110e4c354beb20308830d108a54b.
ath9k_hw_set_sta_beacon_timers() configures AR_TIM_PERIOD with
the beacon interval. Before this commit, the sleepduration was
never greater than the beacon interval. But now, the behavior
has changed. For example, with an AP that uses a beacon interval of 100:
ath: phy9: next beacon 61128704
ath: phy9: beacon period 204800
ath: phy9: DTIM period 204800
If the sleepduration is calculated based on the listen time, then
the bmiss threshold should also be changed since the HW would
be in sleep state for a longer time, but that is not done currently.
To avoid configuring a higher beacon interval based on the sleepduration,
revert to the original behavior. Power consumption is not a
problem since PS is disabled in ath9k anyway.
