3.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eliad Peller <el...@wizery.com>
commit dac211ec10d268b9d09000093a9fa2ac1773894f upstream.
ieee80211_rx_mgmt_auth() doesn't handle denied authentication
properly - it authenticates the station and waits for association
(for 5 seconds) instead of failing the authentication.
Fix it by destroying auth_data and bailing out instead.
