mac80211: mesh portal functionality support
Currently the mesh code doesn't support bridging mesh point interfaces
with wired ethernet or AP to construct an MPP or MAP. This patch adds
code to support the "6 address frame format packet" functionality to
mesh point interfaces. Now the mesh network can be used as backhaul
for end to end communication.
