Description

I don't know your code that well... It seems that your driver does not support get_tsf and set_tsf or offset_tsf, yet.
How is beacon collision avoidance handled then?

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the MT76 driver handling for get_tsf, set_tsf, and offset_tsf, then trace how mac80211 handles beacon collision avoidance when those operations are unavailable. Done is not defined: the issue would need a clarified expected behavior before implementation or testing can begin.
