what good does this temporary do?

space after switch please.

This seems a bit too wall of text to me.

Maybe a simplifying macro like:

#define case_WLAN(type)                         \
        case WLAN_REASON_##type: return #type

and use:
        switch (reason_code) {
        case_WLAN(UNSPECIFIED);
        case_WLAN(PREV_AUTH_NOT_VALID);

etc...
