When changing to a new BSSID or SSID, the code in ieee80211_set_disassoc() needs to have the old data still valid to be able to disconnect and clean up properly. Currently, however, the old data is thrown away before ieee80211_set_disassoc() is ever called, so fix that by calling the function _before_ the old data is overwritten. This is (one of) the issue(s) causing mac80211 to hold cfg80211's BSS structs forever, and them thus being returned in scan results after they're long gone.
