duration_id field in zd1211rw

Hello developers,

first thank you for the rewrite of zd1211 driver.

I use a small x86 server currently with linux 3.2.1 and generic ZyDAS 
wifi ZD1211B 802.11g (USB ID 0ace:1215), fw 1.4
hostapd v0.7.3 is used for AP mode with WPA2 security. 6 wifi clients 
(ath and prism54 chips) connect without problems.

Unfortunately two notebooks with iwl5100 card cannot connect at all. 
Tested with both linux and Win7 on the notebook.
I also tested without security and iwl5100 didn't work again.

Hostapd log shows that association worked but EAPOL frame is not replied 
by iwl:

Re: duration_id field in zd1211rw

Hello again!

I tested the patch with pspoll check and concluded it works as it  
should. I'm planing to post your patch (+ pspoll fix) to upstream, so  
may I add your 'Signed-off-by' to it?

-Jussi

ps. patch attached.
