Note that in the case where NL80211_ATTR_BEACON_TX_MODE is not specified 
that
beacon_tx_mode will be zero, which is not a valid nl80211_beacon_tx_mode 
enumeration.

Should you renumber the nl80211_beacon_tx_mode enumerations so that the 
default
mode has a value of 0? Or add NL80211_BEACON_DEFAULT_MODE = 0 and allow 
the driver
to select a default mode?
