Create a function to return a descriptive string for each reason code,
and print that in addition to the numeric value in the kernel log. These
codes are easily found on popular search engines, but one is generally
not able to access the internet when dealing with wireless connectivity
issues.
Changes in v2: Refactored array of strings into switch statement.
Changes in v3: Fix style problem, use simplifying macro for switch
statement, eliminate temporary enum variable.
