There was some bug when rescheduling the next beacon from
the beacon tasklet after adjusting TSF which would cause
the beacon timer to trigger twice. Beaconing at "old" TBT
(previously scheduled interface TBTT) with new timestamp
was incorrect anyway.

Instead, reschedule the beacon straight away when
adjusting TSF.

	don't kill hrtimer tasklet if currently running to

That test_bit() really seems suspicious - there are no other users in
the tree except for the internal tasklet code... What are you trying to
do?

I'm trying to avoid calling tasklet_hrtimer_cancel() recursively, that
is, when mac80211_hwsim_beacon_sched() is called from within the
hrtimer tasklet itself. Looking at it again this does seem ugly. Would
it be acceptable to pass a flag to _beacon_sched() indicating whether
a reschedule is taking place from within the tasklet? We could also
have a mac80211_hwsim_beacon_sched() (which would cance the hrtimer
tasklet) and __mac80211_hwsim_beacon_sched() pair, but I'm not sure if
that nomenclature applies here.

Thanks for reviewing.
Thomas

That seems fine to me.

Whichever causes less code duplication? Could one call the other maybe?
Dunno, up to you. I was really just thinking that the test_bit() was odd
since nobody else uses it.
