Log:
  MFC r216238:
  Fix scanning after loosing a connection. The firmware assumes that as long
  as an association ID is set any scan is supposed to be a background scan.
  This implies that the firmware will switch back to the associated channel
  after a certain threshold, though, we are not notified about that. We
  currently catch this case by a timer which will reset the firmware after
  a 'scan timeout', though, upper layers are not notified about that and
  will simply hang until manual intervention. Fix this by resetting the
  firmware's knowledge about any association on RUN -> ASSOC and
  !INIT -> SCAN transitions.
