mac80211: Update mesh constants to approved IEEE ANA values
This patch updates IEEE802.11 mesh constants to be consistent with newly approved values. It modifies some values, as well as adds many new constants in preparation for updating mesh code to the current 802.11s drafts. ANA numbers were taken from: https://mentor.ieee.org/802.11/dcn/09/11-09-0031-12-0000-ana-database-assigned-number-authority.xls A few notes are in order: 1. This will break backwards compatibility with existing Linux kernels as over-the-air constants have changed. 2. Some old and obsolete constants have been retained for now as the mesh code itself hasn't been updated yet to the new 802.11s draft. This was desired to keep the existing mesh scheme working until it can be updated. Adding the approved values is the first step in updating the mesh code. 3. Obsolete constants have been clearly marked. 4. All ANA approved 802.11s constants have been added. Signed-off-by: Steve deRosier <steve@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
