This is a quick patch to enable HT for mesh mode
https://github.com/cozybit/open80211s/wiki/HOWTO#high-throughput
http://lists.open80211s.org/pipermail/devel/2012-March/002990.html

For my test setup the speed increased from 1-2 Mbytes/sec to 8-10 Mbytes/sec (iperf)

df10e201eb mac80211: rework mac address allocation
If the first byte is available in the address mask, use only that one -
set the local bit and xor it with the id << 2. This ensures that there
are no hardware BSSID & BSSID-mask conflicts with devices that have
almost the same MAC address with just a small offset. The MAC address
conflict has been observed in a deployment with some devices from the
same batch when running with multiple interfaces.

If only some bits of the last byte are available, xor the id onto the
last MAC address byte (relevant mostly for Ralink devices).

In other cases (should not happen at this point), use the previous MAC
address offset calculation but without the local bit.

8516ddb133 mac80211, hostapd: Fix macfilter for multi bssid setups
Previously only the first macfilter configuration would have been used
on all interfaces. However, the configuration was always done per vif
already. Hence, move the macfilter setup into hostapd.sh where and
create one mac list file per vif.

a0cd381e79 mac80211: Allow preamble configuration
Add a new wireless config parameter short_preamble=0|1 to enable
usage of short preambles. Default is to only allow long preambles
as before.

Even if short_preamble is set to 1 hostapd will take care that
short preambles are disabled as soon as a STA associates that
cannot handle short preambles.

d7205a9021 mac80211: change wireless ifname numbering schema Instead of simply counting up until we hit a free iface, group ifnames by wiphy so that the first wlanX on a phy gets the phy number and following ifaces an index-suffix, e.g. wlan0 for network 1 on phy 1 and wlan0-1 for network 2 on phy 1. This fixes state var confusion when operating multiple radios and allows to reliably take down and restart one radio only, even if the number of networks changes in between. This should, along with other changes in LuCI, fix #10335.

3494bdc59a mac80211: allow AP configuration of beacon interval, DTIM period, maximum permissible STA listen interval, and basic rates
This introduces beacon_int and basic_rate (per wifi-device), and
dtim_period and max_listen_int (per wifi-iface) for mac80211. These
configure the beacon interval, basic rate specification, DTIM period
(one DTIM per this many beacon frames), and maximum listen interval
that a STA will be permitted to associate with. All of the new
settings are optional; if they're absent, the existing hostapd (or, in
the case of basic_rate, driver) defaults will be used.

The existing bintval property only used for type adhoc is moved from
wifi-iface to wifi-device, and is renamed to beacon_interval because
bintval isn't a great name. The beacon interval is property of the
wifi-device; while the choice between wifi-device and wifi-iface may
not be relevant with an adhoc network, there's no reason to configure
the same property one way for type adhoc and another for type ap. This
change isn't expected to cause many problems, as bintval was added
recently, in r25111.

Similarly, the list of basic rates, also added for type adhoc in
r25111, is a property of the device and not the interface. Further, it
ought to be represented in UCI as a list, not a string dependent on
the format that iw uses. I’ve moved it onto the device, renamed it to
basic_rate, and made it configurable for APs via hostapd. Finally, I
adapted it to use the same kb/s representation as mcast_rate; there's
precedent for this format in that it's also how madwifi interprets
mcast_rate.

Neither bintval nor basicrates were ever documented in the UCI
wireless configuration page on the wiki. When this change is
committed, I'll update the documentation as needed.
