funny, but by chance this is a flow i am dealing with right now in STA
mode as part of patch meant to clean a bit the dissassoc flow. as to
AP mode - i did not look at the rework as well and i will have to
check this part, but IMHO this is more to do with the general flow of
assoc/dissassoc. if the MLME decides to remove an STA - by all means
it has to free its resources first - aggregation queues is one if them
of course.
