I believe that the problem is that your kernel's ath9k driver does not
include complete support 802.11s. Later kernels do support the required
driver functionality. You can see this from the iw output in that "mesh
point" is not a supported interface mode:
Supported interface modes:
> * IBSS
> * managed
> * AP
> * AP/VLAN
> * monitor
> * P2P-client
> * P2P-GO
>
Note the abscense of "mesh point" in this output.
Here is the output from my system (/etc/dogtag: BeagleBoard.org Debian
Image 2016-01-17; uname -r: 4.1.15-ti-rt-r41)
Supported interface modes:
* IBSS
* managed
* AP
* AP/VLAN
* monitor
* mesh point
* P2P-client
* P2P-GO
I would highly recommend updating to a recent Debian 8.x image and a 4.1.x
kernel. IIRC, anything older than 3.19 didn't work too well with mesh
mode. I have not tried with 4.1.x but I would expect that it should work
fine.
