mac80211: do remain-on-channel while idle
The IDLE handling in HW off-channel is broken right now since we turn off IDLE only when the off-channel period already started. Therefore, all drivers that use it today (only iwlwifi!) must support off-channel while idle, so playing with idle isn't needed at all. Off-channel in general, since it's no longer used for authentication/association, shouldn't affect PS, so also remove that logic. Also document a small caveat for reporting TX status from off-channel frames in HW remain-on-channel. Signed-off-by:Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by:
