+From: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com>

+

+Michael reported that p54* never really entered power

+save mode, even tough it was enabled.

+

+It turned out that upon a power save mode change the

+firmware will set a special flag onto the last outgoing

+frame tx status (which in this case is almost always the

+designated PSM nullfunc frame). This flag confused the

+driver; It erroneously reported transmission failures

+to the stack, which then generated the next nullfunc.

+and so on...
