ath5k: beacon interval is in TU
the beacon interval is passed by mac80211 in TU already, so we can directly use it without conversion. also update the comments about TU (1 TU is defined by 802.11 as 1024usec). drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/ath5k.h: Changes-licensed-under: ISC drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.c: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.h: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <bruno@thinktube.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
