[PATCH] mac80211: fix receiving deauth

[Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>]

Marcel reported a warning, which quite obviously comes
from an oversight in the code handling deauth frames,
and which resulted in multiple follow-up warnings due
to this missing handling. This patch adds the missing
deauth handling (telling cfg80211 about it) and also
removes the follow-up warnings since they could happen
due to races even if nothing is wrong. I've explained
the races in the comments.
