Connect to the highest rssi with the required SSID in the shadow
table if the connection criteria is based only on the SSID.
For the first matching SSID, an index to the table is saved.
Later the index is updated if matching SSID has a higher
RSSI value than the last saved index.

However if decision is made based on BSSID, there is only one match
in the table and corresponding index is used.

My understanding from reading the code is that "last_scanned_cnt + 1"
is a randomly chosen invalid value.  Just saying:

	sel_bssi_idx = last_scanned_cnt;

would  also work because it's also invalid and slightly shorter to type.
But I suggest that you go with something like UINT_MAX because that's
more clearly invalid.

Combine these with an ||.

			if (!sme->bssid) {
				if (sel_bssi_idx == UINT_MAX ||
				    last_scanned_shadow[i].rssi >
				    last_scanned_shadow[sel_bssi_idx].rssi)
					sel_bssi_idx = i;



In a separate patch, you can reverse the if statement at the start of
the loop:

		if (sme->ssid_len != last_scanned_shadow[i].ssid_len ||
		    memcmp(last_scanned_shadow[i].ssid, sme->ssid,
			   sme->ssid_len) != 0)
			continue;

That way you can pull these lines in a tab.

Add a space before the curly brace.

I shall send an updated patch with the suggested changes and a separate
patch for the change at the beginning of the loop. 

Thanks for your review!
