    In this way an IBSS station will not use the AUTH messages
    to trigger a state reinitialisation anymore.
    
    The behaviour was racy and was not working properly.
    It has been introduced to help wpa_supplicant to support
    IBSS/RSN, however all the logic is now getting moved into
    wpa_s itself which will also be in charge of handling the
    AUTH messages thanks to the mgmt frame registration.
    
    If userspace does not register for receiving AUTH frames
    then mac80211 will still reply by itself.
    
    At the same time, the auth frame registration counter can be
    removed since it is not needed anymore.
