I should have been more careful, just got thrown off during the last
few steps of the bisect. But with the bad association to the AP after
a57a59f247b651e8ed6d3eeb7e2f9d83b83134c9 (iwlwifi: remove implicit
direct scan), can someone suggest where to go from here?

Meanwhile, I'll try bisecting again.

Thanks,
Jeff.
