Subject: [ 024/104] rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Fix problem that prevents reassociation

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@...inger.net>

commit 9437a248e7cac427c898bdb11bd1ac6844a1ead4 upstream.

The driver was failing to clear the BSSID when a disconnect happened. That
prevented a reconnection. This problem is reported at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=789605,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=866786,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=906734, and
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46171.

Thanks to Jussi Kivilinna for making the critical observation
that led to the solution.
