4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 75fd4fec3e4c43b131c7c4958adb3ab9f1665513 ]
The earlier patch called the station add functions but didn't assign their return value to the ret variable, so that the checks for it were meaningless. Fix that.
