The MLME request reason code is host-endian and our passing
it to the low level functions is host-endian as well since
they do the swapping. I noticed that the reason code 768 was
sent (0x300) rather than 3 when wpa_supplicant terminates.
This removes the superfluous cpu_to_le16() call.

I guess that this bug has been present forever. It's not very critical
but what we're sending is in violation of the IEEE 802.11 specs.
