[PATCH 5.4 099/155] mac80211: mark station unauthorized before key removal

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

commit b16798f5b907733966fd1a558fca823b3c67e4a1 upstream.

If a station is still marked as authorized, mark it as no longer
so before removing its keys. This allows frames transmitted to it
to be rejected, providing additional protection against leaking
plain text data during the disconnection flow.
