#./load
#iwconfig eth1 power <something (except *off)>
#iwlist eth1 get_power  -> shows the off

can use #iwpriv eth1 get_power and #iwpriv eth1 set_power to let it works.

patch to try

Currently we don't support the "iwconfig power timeout/period" option.
We can set power save level through "iwpriv set_power".

The patch fixes some errores in the power setting/getting path.
And add timeout info when using iwconfig/iwlist power to get the power save
info.

Set power does not work by iwconfig.

Currently we can use iwpriv to set power, and use iwlist or iwpriv to get 
power.

Verify this bug.
