This reverts commit 8def9ec46a5fafc0abcf34489a9e8a787bca984d.
The firmware keep-alive does not cause any event in case of error such as non acked. It's just a basic keep alive to prevent the AP to kick-off the station due to inactivity. So let mac80211 submit its own monitoring packet (probe/null) and disconnect on timeout.
Note: We want to keep firmware keep alive to prevent kick-off when host is in suspend-to-mem (no mac80211 monitor packet). Ideally fw keep alive should be enabled in suspend path and disabled in resume path to prevent having both firmware and mac80211 submitting periodic null packets.
This fixes non detected AP leaving issues in active mode (nothing monitors beacon or connection).
