Hi Marco.
Thanks for the answer. I agree that listed #3 patch is for
ath9k specific. For wl1271 I need to see the datasheet and make
corresponding change in the driver for powersave. But for basic mesh
support you say that some patch is required? with the default kernel that
support Mesh is not enough?
Regards,
Rudresh
