Initialization of bss_descriptor is unnecessary as the entire
structure will be overwritten by a memcpy.

Should the = true line be moved below the memcpy?  Your way produces
the same behavior, but was it buggy before?
  	/* Make a copy of current BSSID descriptor */
  	memcpy(&priv->curr_bss_params.bss_descriptor, bss_desc,
