Somebody in the thread at some point said:
| When changing wireless settings, the WMI is often not updated, because
| we send a connect but no prior disconnect. The firmware seems to ignore
| the connect if already associated.

| +     * Unfortunately, this also meant that no disconnect was sent
when we were
| +     * already connected, but the profile has been changed since
(which also
| +     * clears the ESSID as a reminder that the WMI needs updating.)

Hm hard to know what was originally intended to achieve, anyway this
seems like a good way if nothing blew up in the firmware.  Thanks for
the patch and sent it on stable-tracking.
