When de-authenticated by an AP, the state of wpa_s should be cleared,
especially the previous bssid. Otherwise, we will use re-assoc packets
when associating to the same AP. This is not according to spec, and some
APs refuse to association.

I'm not 100% sure with this patch, I just tried to copy the relevant
parts from sme_deauth(). But it definitely fixed some real world issues
we encountered with a mac80211 based driver. With prev_bssid_set == 1,
re-assoc packets are used in mac80211 during association.
