So I didn't do the testing that soon...
Got swamped by many bugs present in ubuntu 9.10.

Now I have attempted same patch on top of wpa_supplicant, and it works.

diff --git a/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.c b/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.c

+               }
                addr = wpa_s->bssid;
        }
        wpa_clear_keys(wpa_s, addr);



Would that be enough, or this is too hacky, and we need to audit each callsite of wpa_supplicant_disassociate
and see if we need to send deauth frame too?
