In case of HE AP-STA link, ieee80211_send_nullfunc() will not send the QOS NULL packet to check if AP is still associated. In this case, probe_send_count will be non zero and ieee80211_sta_work() will later disassociate the AP. (although it didn't really send a test QOS NULL packet). Fix is to decrement probe_send_count and not call ieee80211_send_nullfunc() in case of HE link.
