To support roaming below changes are done:
* Station notify frame is send to firmware after sending assoc
  request. This will avoid dropping of first EAPOL frame due to
  delay in creation of station control block in firmware.
* Data queues are unblocked after sending station notify in open
  mode, after configuring key in WEP mode, and after receiving
  EAPOL4 confirm in WPA mode.
* Initial EAPOL frames priority is chaged to MGMT, rekey EAPOL
  frames priority changed to VO.
* Data frames with wrong BSSID are dropped.
I don't know what Johannes thinks but IMHO the driver should not drop
any data frames, it should just submit what mac80211 gives to it. All
filtering should happen in mac80211 (or controlled by it).
