[PATCH] ath10k: set the AP keepalive timer

Set the AP keepalive timer as following:
ap_keepalive_min_idle_inactive_time_secs to 60 seconds
ap_keepalive_max_idle_inactive_time_secs to 120 seconds
ap_keepalive_max_unresponsive_time_secs to 300 seconds

This ensure that the WMI_PEER_STA_KICKOUT_EVENTID is triggered
by the FW only once the unresponsive timer is expired.

Tested with firmware version 999.999.0.636 but the timer
is still default to 100 seconds. Tested with firmware 
version 10.1.467-1, the timer is set according to 
ap_keepalive_max_unresponsive_time_secs.
