We can get this working with
- Secure APs PS on/off
- Open APs PS on
by setting firmware feature bit WLANACTIVE_OFFLOAD
Open APs PS off though is non-functional even with the above bit enabled
and three quaters of a wheel is useless.
So unfortunately for now zap it off.

Should it get a 'Fixes' tag?

Avoid using acronyms as much as possible, PS meaning power save might
not be clear for everyone.
And please try to be more specific, I'm not sure what power save feature
you are meaning here. (802.11 protocol power save, BMPS or what?)

But this patch is not really fixing anything, right? I wonder if there's
patch 2 missing?

The commit log should answer to question "why?". Please move the
explanation from the cover email to the commit log.

Yep - the issue is on an Open AP when we enter BMPS link monitoring
stops working.
I'll make that clear in a resend
