commit 8bc8aecdc5e26cfda12dbd6867af4aa67836da6a upstream.
This field is used to determine the inactivity time. When in AP mode, hostapd uses it for kicking out inactive clients after a while. Without this patch, hostapd immediately deauthenticates a new client if it checks the inactivity time before the client sends its first data frame.
