Can we edit this commit log message? mac80211 will not start looking for another AP in DISABLED state. How about When a disassoc packet is received from the AP with a reason code of 'leaving the BSS', mac80211 should go into DISABLED state just as it would do if the AP suddenly went away for some reason, as that is what will happen shortly after the AP leaves anyway. (is that correct?)
