Some patches had to be modified to work with changed upstream source:
380-disable_ctrl_iface_mib.patch (adding more ifdef'ery)
plus some minor knits needed for other patches to apply which are not
worth being explicitely listed here.

For SAE key management in mesh mode, use the newly introduce
sae_password parameter instead of the psk parameter to also support
SAE keys which would fail the checks applied on the psk field (ie.
length and such). This fixes compatibility issues for users migrating
from authsae.

Subject: [PATCH] set mcast_rate in mesh mode
The wpa_supplicant code for IBSS allows to set the mcast rate. It is
recommended to increase this value from 1 or 6 Mbit/s to something higher
when using a mesh protocol on top which uses the multicast packet loss as
indicator for the link quality.
This setting was unfortunately not applied for mesh mode. But it would be
beneficial when wpa_supplicant would behave similar to IBSS mode and set
this argument during mesh join like authsae already does. At least it is
helpful for companies/projects which are currently switching to 802.11s
(without mesh_fwding and with mesh_ttl set to 1) as replacement for IBSS
because newer drivers seem to support 802.11s but not IBSS anymore.
