[PATCH 3/4] mac80211: mesh: fixed HT ies in beacon template

From: Yaniv Machani
Date: Tue Jun 28 2016 - 07:11:25 EST


From: Meirav Kama <meiravk@xxxxxx>

There are several values in HT info elements of mesh beacon (built by the
mac80211) that are incorrect.
To fix them:
1. mac80211 will check configuration from cfg and will build accordingly.
2. changes made in mesh default values.
