The GO negotiation confirm frame doesn't need
to be sent with a wait since we don't expect a
response to it.

Thanks, applied. I was trying to figure out why the wait was there in
the first place, but could not really come up with any good reason for
maintaining this value. I think it ended up coming from the early design
where a hardcoded value was used for all operation and this GO Neg Conf
frame was just never optimized to use something else than the default
200 ms wait. Not that this really should make much of a difference since
the wait is canceled immediately after receiving TX status event from
the driver.

Makes sense.

Yes, that's true, it just saves some calculations in mac80211 :-)
