Subject: [PATCH 10/10] mlme: Don't unlink bss on assoc timeout and similar.
Date:   Fri,  8 Nov 2019 11:44:33 -0800
Message-Id: <20191108194433.24021-1-greearb@candelatech.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Sender: linux-wireless-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>

With lots of virtual stations, we want to keep the bss entries around
even if one station fails to associate for some reason.  The timeouts
should still get rid of truly stale ones eventually.
