mwifiex: handle association failure case correctly
Currently even if association is failed "iw link" shows some information about connected BSS and "Tx timeout" error is seen in dmesg log. This patch fixes below issues in the code to handle assoc failure case correctly. 1) "status" variable in mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() is not correctly updated. Hence driver doesn't inform cfg80211 stack about association failure. 2) During association network queues are stopped but carrier is not cleared, which gives Tx timeout error in failure case Signed-off-by: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao <bzhao@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
