* of any of NET80211_PROBED, NET80211_AUTHENTICATED,

* far along in associating we are; NET80211_WORKING if the

* packet has been sent that we're waiting for a reply to. We
* can only be crypto-synced if we're associated, we can
* only be associated if we're authenticated, we can only be
* authenticated if we've probed.
*
* If an association process fails (that is, we receive a
* packet with an error indication), the error code is copied
* into bits 6-0 of this variable and bit 7 is set to specify
* what type of error code it is. An AP can provide either a
* "status code" (0-51 are defined) explaining why it refused
* an association immediately, or a "reason code" (0-45 are
* defined) explaining why it canceled an association after it
* had originally OK'ed it. Status and reason codes serve
* similar functions, but they use separate error message
* tables. A gPXE-formatted return status code (negative) is
* placed in @c assoc_rc.
*
* If the failure to associate is indicated by a status code,
* the NET80211_IS_REASON bit will be clear; if it is
* indicated by a reason code, the bit will be set. If we were
* successful, both zero status and zero reason mean success,
* so there is no ambiguity.
*
* To prevent association when opening the device, user code
* can set the NET80211_NO_ASSOC bit. The final bit in this
* variable, NET80211_AUTO_SSID, is used to remember whether
* we picked our SSID through automated probing as opposed to
* user specification; the distinction becomes relevant in the
