I'm working on it right now. Practically instead of association check
what will  remain is check if everything is station is properly
configured. Meaning stations is configured in the set in the firmware
and rate scale is also set.
This will cover all modes. Need to implement sta_notify handler and
move some code from rate scaling to the driver.
There will be never full synchronization between mac80211 and the
driver about internal station state but the check might be very
simplified.

Thanks
