Currently after the hardware restart triggered from the driver,
the station interface connection remains intact, since a disconnect
trigger is not sent to userspace. This can lead to a problem in
targets where the wifi mac sequence is added by the firmware.
After the target restart, during subsytem recovery, the target
restarts its wifi mac sequence number. Hence AP to which our device
is connected will receive frames with a wifi mac sequence number jump
to the past, thereby resulting in the AP dropping all these frames,
until the frame arrives with a wifi mac sequence number which AP was
expecting.
To avoid such frame drops, its better to trigger a station disconnect
upon target hardware restart which can be done with API
ieee80211_reconfig_disconnect exposed to mac80211.
The other targets are not affected by this change, since the hardware
params flag is not set.
