staging: wilc1000: store bss object and use cfg80211_connect_bss()
In a fast disconnect/connect sequence, cfg80211_connect_result() can fail to find the bss object which the driver is connecting to. Detailed sequence of events: * Driver is connected in STA mode * Disconnect request arrives from user space. Driver disconnects and calls cfg80211_disconnected() which adds new event to the cfg80211_wq worker thread * Connect request arrives from user space. cfg80211_connect() stores ssid/ssid_len and calls rdev_connect() * __cfg80211_disconnected() runs in worker thread and zero wdev->ssid_len * Connect succeeds. Driver calls cfg80211_connect_result() which fails to find the bss because wdev->ssid_len is zero To overcome this, upon connect request, store the bss object in the driver and upon connect completion pass it to kernel using cfg80211_connect_bss().
