    iwlwifi: plug memory modified after free
    
    In certain situations we saw a memory modified after free.  This was
    tracked down to a pointer not NULLed after free and used in a different
    code path.  It is unclear how the race happens pending further
    investigation but setting the pointer to NULL after free and adding a
    check in the 2nd code path handling the case gracefully helps for now.
    
    While here improve another debug messge in sta handling.
