Once receiving a CLOSE action frame from the disconnecting peer,
flush all entries in the path table which has this peer as the
next hop.

In addition, upon receiving a packet, if next hop is not found,
trigger PERQ immidiatly, instead of just putting it in the queue.

Please address the user-visible behavior in your commit messages.
Does it crash?  Does it send frames to an invalid peer?  Do
frames get dropped?

"PREQ"

Please split this into a separate patch that we can review
separately (and also give the "why" in the commit log).

This isn't necessary, caller should already be doing
mesh_path_flush_by_nexthop() in every case I could see.  Besides it
cannot be done under plink lock.

And this is already fixed in mac80211-next.

Hi Bob,
It was a crash, apparently already fixed by your patches some time ago.
I'll remove that part and resend the 2nd part (with some more 'why', and less typos..)

I believe this was fixed in your patch "mac80211: mesh: flush paths outside of plink lock"
There is probably no need in that on the latest as well.

Thanks,
Yaniv
