[v4] mac80211: fix the mesh channel switch support

Commit Message

Chun-Yeow Yeoh Nov. 8, 2013, 7:09 a.m. UTC

Mesh STA receiving the mesh CSA action frame is not able to trigger
the mesh channel switch due to the incorrect handling and comparison
of mesh channel switch parameters element (MCSP)'s TTL. Make sure
the MCSP's TTL is updated accordingly before calling the
ieee80211_mesh_process_chnswitch. Also, we update the beacon before
forwarding the CSA action frame, so MCSP's precedence value and
initiator flag need to be updated prior to this.

v2: only allow channel switch if mesh TTL less than dot11MeshTTL (Chun-Yeow)
v3: set the initiator flag and precedence value prior to beacon update (Chun-Yeow)
v4: return false if mesh TTL is not complied (Chun-Yeow)

I guess I'll apply this.

However, it seems to me that you should be using put_unaligned_le16() or
so in places like this - maybe clean them all up?
