This seems wrong, the Wide Bandwidth Channel Switch element should come
*after* the Mesh Channel Switch Parameters, see Figure 9-647—Channel
Switch Announcement frame Action field format in 802.11-2016.

CSA action really is 24 + 1 + 1 + 5 for header, action type/subtype,
CSA Element. Where do the other 8 bytes come from? Are those the mesh
channel switch parameters?

That would seem somewhat reasonable, but if it's correct here then the
parsing previously done in mesh_rx_csa_frame() is utterly wrong, it
seems?

Here, for parsing &elems.

Either way, this really needs to be changed completely to just do

elems->mesh_chansw_params_ie->mesh_ttl--;
elems->mesh_chansw_params_ie->mesh_flags &= ~WLAN_EID_...;

If you then still have problems with the order field, then clearly that
needs to be taken into account *before* parsing the elements.
