Use on() and off(), that's what they are there for :

$('#do-login').on('click', login);

function login(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    var that = $(this);
    that.off('click'); // remove handler
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "/php/auth/login.php",
        data: $("#login-form").serialize()
    }).done(function(msg) {
        // do stuff
    }).always(function() {
        that.on('click', login); // add handler back after ajax
    });
});
