cfg80211: fix BSS double-unlinking (continued)

Browse source 
This patch adds to the fix "fix BSS double-unlinking"
(commit 3207390a8b) by Johannes Berg.

It turns out, that the double-unlinking scenario can also occur if expired
BSS elements are removed whilst an interface is performing association.

To work around that, replace list_del with list_del_init also in the
"cfg80211_bss_expire" function, so that the check for whether the BSS still is
in the list works correctly in cfg80211_unlink_bss.
