 Don't use BUS_DMA_ALLOCNOW as that causes the attachment to fail on

net80211 wireless stack. This work is based on the March 2009 D3.0 draft
standard. This standard is expected to become final next year.
This includes two main net80211 modules, ieee80211_mesh.c
which deals with peer link management, link metric calculation,
routing table control and mesh configuration and ieee80211_hwmp.c
which deals with the actually routing process on the mesh network.
HWMP is the mandatory routing protocol on by the mesh standard, but
others, such as RA-OLSR, can be implemented.

Authentication and encryption are not implemented.

There are several scripts under tools/tools/net80211/scripts that can be
used to test different mesh network topologies and they also teach you
how to setup a mesh vap (for the impatient: ifconfig wlan0 create
wlandev ... wlanmode mesh).

A new build option is available: IEEE80211_SUPPORT_MESH and it's enabled
by default on GENERIC kernels for i386, amd64, sparc64 and pc98.

Drivers that support mesh networks right now are: ath, ral and mwl.

More information at: http://wiki.freebsd.org/WifiMesh

Please note that this work is experimental. Also, please note that
bridging a mesh vap with another network interface is not yet supported.

Many thanks to the FreeBSD Foundation for sponsoring this project and to
Sam Leffler for his support.
Also, I would like to thank Gateworks Corporation for sending me a
Cambria board which was used during the development of this project.

o add a new facility for components to register send+recv handlers
o ieee80211_send_action and ieee80211_recv_action now use the registered
  handlers to dispatch operations
o rev ieee80211_send_action api to enable passing arbitrary data
o rev ieee80211_recv_action api to pass the 802.11 frame header as it may
  be difficult to locate
o update existing IEEE80211_ACTION_CAT_BA and IEEE80211_ACTION_CAT_HT handling
o update mwl for api rev
