To comply with WMM-PS the device shouldn't wake up
with a NullFunc frame pair when tx-ing. Instead PM
bit on each tx frame should be used.

To make this work correctly firmware needs to be
told to use a different STA PS wake threshold when
u-APSD is enabled.

Notes:
    v2:
     * fix Rx performance
     * fix error handling (use goto instead of return)
