In ad-hoc mode, beacon timers are configured differently compared to AP
mode, and (depending on the scenario) can vary enough to make the beacon
tasklet not detect slot 0 based on the TSF.
Since staggered beacons are not (and cannot be) used in ad-hoc mode, it
makes more sense to just hardcode slot 0 here, avoiding unnecessary
TSF reads and calculations.
