The functions
is_client_associated_to_ap()
is_client_associated_to_ibss()
is_IBSS_empty()
return boolean values. Convert their return type to bool and replace
_FAIL, which is defined as 0, with false. Another step to get rid of
_SUCCESS / _FAIL.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the patch. Just my personal opinion, but I would prefer to
keep the return type as int, and have 0 for success and then _FAIL
replaced with an appropriate error code depending on the circumstance,
(e.g. -ENOMEM). This is generally the convention elsewhere in the
kernel. Others may not agree though.
All the best,
Phil

For functions that are just returning true/false like this (and the
function name is something like "is_foo()"), a boolean type is fine and
makes more sense as you will only check it in an "if ()" statement block
like how these are being used.
However, these function names are horrible for being in the global
namespace, but that's a totally different issue that can be fixed up in
a later patch.

instead of

return false;
These could be:
return (pmlmeinfo->state & WIFI_FW_ASSOC_SUCCESS) &&
((pmlmeinfo->state & 0x03) == WIFI_FW_STATION_STATE);
