* Your host has to support USB remote wake-up.

they are interpreted as Addresses 5 and 6 (Address 4 being the 4th
address in the 802.11 header).
The address extension used to hold up to 3 addresses instead of the current 2.
I'm not sure which draft version changed this, but it is very unlikely that it
will change again given the state of the approval process of this draft. See
section 7.1.3.6.3 in current draft (8.0).
Also, note that the extra address that I'm removing was not being used, so this
change has no effect on over-the-air frame formats. But I thought I better
remove it before someone does start using it.

mac80211: Let userspace enable and configure vendor specific path selection.
Userspace will now be allowed to toggle between the default path
selection algorithm (HWMP, implemented in the kernel), and a vendor
specific alternative. Also in the same patch, allow userspace to add
information elements to mesh beacons. This is accordance with the
Extensible Path Selection Framework specified in version 7.0 of the
802.11s draft.

carl9170 firmware: fix CAB MAC RESET regression
commit "carl9170 firmware: improve tx ampdu ba_end handling"
introduced a serious regression.
Since the wlan_trigger was missing, the flushed CAB frames
were stuck in tx queue. This of course lead to countless
warnings from the tx watchdog as it reseted the MAC
processor over and over again.

carl9170 firmware: fix inaccurate delay calculation
The internal refclock is set by the driver to either:
44MHz - when the device operates on a 2.4 GHz channel
40MHz - 5GHz Band
This patch removes the previously used "80MHz" constant
(that's wrong anyway since this is the HT40 AHB/CPU clock)
and enhance the code so it can deal with the slight clock
speed variations.

carl9170 firmware: fix CAB queue delivery
This patch fixes a problem were frames - destined for

However, DELAYED_TX is not enabled by default. So, only
the few people who use a custom, non-standard firmware
will be affected.
