+    ath9k: fix tracking of enabled AP beacons
+    
+    sc->nbcnvifs tracks assigned beacon slots, not enabled beacons.
+    Therefore, it cannot be used to decide if cur_conf->enable_beacon (bool)
+    should be updated, or if beacons have been enabled already.
+    With the current code (depending on the order of calls), beacons often
+    do not get enabled in an AP+STA setup.
+    To fix tracking of enabled beacons, convert cur_conf->enable_beacon to a
+    bitmask of enabled beacon slots.
