The driver was failing to clear the BSSID when a disconnect happened. That
prevented a reconnection. This problem is reported at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=789605,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=866786,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=906734, and
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46171.

Thanks to Jussi Kivilinna for making the critical observation
that led to the solution.

John,

As you can see by the number of bug reports, this patch should be
pushed as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Larry
