Description

Allow auto-connect to request scan in associating state Disconnection event may be received while in associating state. Previously, wpa_supplicant could get stuck not trying to reconnect in that case at least with nl80211. Allow scan request in this state to avoid the issue. This helps especially with APs that do load balancing by sending Deauthentication frame as a response to Reassociation Request frame after successful Authentication frame exchange. Cherry-picked from upstream: ea184114ca04ac42f219bb655da5e11dc0a8f73b Original author: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com>; BUG=chromium-os:11198 TEST=Tested using a specially modified kernel used to insert a DEAUTH instead of a positive REASSOC response. This replicates the issue without the change, and verifies correct operation after the change. Going back to a normal kernel (but with this wpa_supplciant change in place), verified propoer operation of the WiFiRoaming suite.
