Could not set station flag for kernel driver

[Yogesh Ashok Powar]

Hi Jouni,

 We have seen following errors when station dissassociates & deauths.

>wlan0: AP-STA-DISCONNECTED 0c:74:c2:9a:4c:59
>wlan0: STA 0c:74:c2:9a:4c:59 IEEE 802.11: disassociated
>wlan0: AP-STA-DISCONNECTED 0c:74:c2:9a:4c:59
>Could not set station 0c:74:c2:9a:4c:59 flags for kernel driver (errno=97).

It seems like hostapd tries to set station flags even after the station
deletion. Following is the patch which avoid removing station entries
from disassoc handler; this will defer station removal to deauth
handler through 'ap_free_sta' call.

Let us know your opinion on this.

Thanks
Yogesh
