[PATCH] wireless/airo: clean up WEXT association and scan events

Airo firmware versions >= 5.30.17 send re-association events to the
driver that are currently unrecognized, causing spurious disassociation
events to be sent to user space. Loss of sync due to scan requests also
results in disassociation events sent to user space. This patch traps
those two events; suppressing sync-loss on scan, and sending the correct
association event on re-association notifications.
