Since driver does not report hardware dynamic power saving cap,
this is up to the mac80211 to manage power saving timeout and
state machine, using the ieee80211 config callback to report
PS changes. This patch enables/disables PS mode according to
the new configuration.

Remove old behaviour enabling PS mode in a static way, this make
the device unusable when power save is enabled since device is
forced to PS regardless RX/TX traffic.

A fixes line would be nice for backporters. I can add that but need the
commit id.
Or maybe this actually isn't a regression? Then of course a fixes line
is not needed.
Yes, not really a regression since the issue came with the driver
itself (8e84c258).
Should I push this to v4.15 or v4.16, any preference?
4.15 would be great.

Thanks,
Loic
