This patch enables netifd to query 802.11ac-driver for the maximum
supported A-MPDU length exponent, possibly increasing VHT throughput by
more aggressive frame aggregation.

This patch adds a config option to enable DFS in ath9k and ath10k
drivers (with ath10k you need the AP-branch firmware). I'm not entirely
sure about the regulatory compliance issues, though. As far as I
understand, enabling the DFS_CERTIFIED config options implies that the
device is certified for DFS. No doubt the original firmware has obtained
such a certification, but not with the open source drivers. I suppose
that as long as this is disabled in default builds (like ATH_USER_REGD)
everything should be fine, but it would be nice to have out-of-the-box
OpenWrt support for DFS. I'm also not sure whether the description of
the configuration option should say something about regulatory compliance.

This patch implements support for 802.11s protected mesh wireless networks (using authsae) in the netifd framework.
Until meshd-nl80211 implements a proper -P option for the PID file, this uses shell backgrounding in order to be able to get the PID for the process.

The antenna gain attribute has been removed from the upstream regulatory database.
Incorperate patch from Luis R. Rodriguez to skip the parsing of the gain attribute
in genregdb.awk in order to emit proper rules again.
Also refresh fuzzy patches while we're at it.

This patch introduces 802.11ac support to mac80211 and hostapd. The split of

This patch fixes a bug in /lib/netifd/wireless/mac80211.sh, where
the UCI setting of wireless multicast traffic (in uci: mcast_rate)
is not respected within netifd. Especially in Freifunk mesh networks
the olsr routing as effected by this, as only the lowest mcast_rate
was used, even when uci ncast_rate was set to something else.
In function mac80211_setup_adhoc() the value of mcast_rate is missing
in json_get_vars.

When wifi radio is reset, some bits in (undocumented) USB registers may

With this patch stability of USB1.1 full-speed devices, connected directly
to AR9331 host port (no USB2.0 hub) is improved.
