hostapd: update mesh DFS patches and add mesh HE support
Drop outdated and by now broken patchset originally supplied by Peter Oh in August 2018 but never merged upstream. Instead add the more promissing rework recently submitted by Markus Theil who picked up Peter's patchset, fixed and completed it and added support for HE (802.11ax) in mesh mode. This is only compile tested and needs some real-life testing. Fixes: FS#3214 Fixes: 167028b750 ("hostapd: Update to version 2.9 (2019-08-08)") Fixes: 0a3ec87a66 ("hostapd: update to latest Git hostap_2_9-1238-gdd2daf0848ed") Fixes: 017320ead3 ("hostapd: bring back mesh patches") Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>
