Subject: softmac: Fixed handling of deassociation from AP
From: Ulrich Kunitz <kune@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In 2.6.19 a deauthentication from the AP doesn't start a reassociation by
the softmac code.  It appears that mac->associnfo.associating must be set
and the ieee80211softmac_assoc_work function must be scheduled.  This patch
fixes that.
