When I originally introduced using the driver-indicated station as an optimisation to avoid the hashtable lookup/iteration, of course it wasn't intended to really functionally change anything. I neglected, however, to take into account VLAN interfaces, which have the property that management and data frames are handled differently: data frames go directly to the station and the VLAN while management frames continue to be processed over the underlying/associated AP-type interface. As a consequence, when a driver used this optimisation for management frames and the user enabled VLANs, my change broke things since any management frames, particularly disassoc/deauth, were missed by hostapd. Fix this by restoring the original code path for non-data frames, they aren't critical for performance to begin with. This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194713. Big thanks goes to Jarek who bisected the issue and provided a very detailed bug report, including the crucial information that he was using VLANs in his configuration.
