When a new MLME work is created, its timeout is initialised
to 0. This is wrong, it could then be thought of as having
an actual timeout in the future (time_is_after_jiffies() can
return true). Instead, it should be initialised to jiffies
so that it will run right away as soon as the mlme work is
executed.
