From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
If sta_info_insert_finish() fails, we currently keep the station
around and free it only in the caller, but there's only one such
caller and it always frees it immediately. Another consequence of
this split is that we need to keep __cleanup_single_sta() with
anything that can sleep, and sta_info_free() with the real memory
release.
Change this to free the station in sta_info_insert_finish(), in
which case we can still sleep. This will also let us unify the
cleanup code later.
