    mac80211: remove warning from ieee80211_beacon_loss · 7a7da6ee

    Currently, mac80211 assumes that connection monitor offload
    for BSS station implies that the device:
    - sends periodic keep alive packets to associated AP
    - monitors missed beacons
    - actively probes the AP in case of missed beacons
    
    In case of poor connection conditions it expects the function
    ieee80211_connection_loss() to be called by driver. However,
    some devices implement connection monitor offload excluding
    active AP probing.
    
    To allow them to call ieee80211_beacon_loss() cleanly, remove
    the warning there and thus allow them to use mac80211 for the
    AP probing even if connection monitor offload is supported.
