[ 118/262] mac80211: clear bssid on auth/assoc failure

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eliad Peller <eliad@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3d2abdfdf14f4d6decc2023708211e19b096f4ca upstream.

ifmgd->bssid wasn't cleared properly in some
auth/assoc failure cases, causing mac80211 and
the low-level driver to go out of sync.

Clear ifmgd->bssid on failure, and notify the driver.
