Yes, ath9k for mesh/AP running simultaneously in one single radio
interface can do beaconing using different beacon interval. Mesh

Hi, Johannes
The introduction of the following patches doesn't allow the AP and
mesh mode to simultaneously run on a single radio interface due to
beacon interval for both interfaces by default is different.

I am not too sure whether by simply broadcasting the PREQ frame could
actually solve the problem and this may cause problem of PREQ flooding

If rt2800usb is loaded with nohwcrypt=1, mac80211 takes

This patch does the following:
- Remove unnecessary flags field used by PERR element.
- Use the per target flags defined in ./include/linux/ieee80211.h.
- Process the target only subfield based on case E2 of sec 13.10.9.3
of IEEE 802.11-2012.
