Subject: [PATCH 3/4] station: utilize the AP_BUSY blacklist for denied auth/assoc
Date: Mon, 19 May 2025 09:36:23 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250519163624.198865-3-prestwoj@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250519163624.198865-1-prestwoj@gmail.com>

Specifically for the NO_MORE_STAS reason code, add the BSS to the
(now renamed) AP_BUSY blacklist to avoid roaming to this BSS for
the near future.

Since we are now handling individual reason codes differently the
whole IS_TEMPORARY_STATUS macro was removed and replaced with a
case statement.
