Subject: cfg80211: allow the plink state blocking for user managed mesh
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4292504044a4fd4c5d9155dcb5c7b09ed6cbf611;p=linux-beck.git

cfg80211: allow the plink state blocking for user managed mesh

wpa_supplicant or authsae handles the mesh peering in user
space, but the plink state is still managed in kernel space.
Currently, there is no implementation by wpa_supplicant or
authsae to block the plink state after it is set to ESTAB.

By applying this patch, we can use the "iw mesh0 station set
<MAC address> plink_action block" to block the peer mesh STA.
This is useful for experimenting purposes.
