Instead of tying mesh activity to interface up, add join and leave commands for mesh. Since we must be backward compatible, let cfg80211 handle joining a mesh if a mesh ID was pre-configured when the device goes up. Note that this therefore must modify mac80211 as well since mac80211 needs to lose the logic to start the mesh on interface up. We now allow querying mesh parameters before the mesh is connected, which simply returns defaults. Setting them (internally renamed to "update") is only allowed while connected. Specify them with the new mesh join command instead where needed. In mac80211, beaconing must now also follow the mesh enabled/not enabled state, which is done by testing the mesh ID.

cfg80211 used to do all its bookkeeping in the notifier, but some new stuff will have to use local variables so make the callback return the netdev pointer.

Logically, the filter adjusting belongs with starting/stopping mesh, not interface up/down, so move it there. Tested-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

The TTL in path selection information elements is different from the mesh ttl used in mesh data frames. Version 7.03 of the 11s draft calls this ttl 'Element TTL'. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* Since we report tx acks to the protocol stack, add the needed flag to hw_flags. This way we'll also use the new AP probing mechanism. Signed-off-by: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Tested-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

* Always free tx buffers before reset, since we also empty hw queues. If we don't and a queue gets stuck, we'll never decrease txq_len and sw will keep thinking the queue is still stuck even after reset.

* By skipping tx power table calibration we also skip setting tx power table on hw. Make sure we always write tx power table on hw since it gets cleared on reset.

If the nullfunc frame used to probe the AP was not acked, there is no point in waiting for the probe timeout, so advance to the next try (or disconnect) immediately. If we do reach the probe timeout without having received a tx status, the connection is probably really bad and worth disconnecting.

Using bitshifts instead of division and multiplication should improve performance. That requires weight and factor to be powers of two, but i think this is something we can live with.

The last_tx_rate field was also updated for non-data frames that are often sent with a lower rate (for example management frames at 1 Mbps). This is confusing when the data rate is actually much higher. Hence, only update the last_tx_rate field with tx rate information gathered from last data frames. If the rate control algorithm filled in txrc.reported_rate we don't need to verify this information.
