    mac80211: mask nested A-MSDU support for mesh
    
    mac80211 incorrectly processes A-MSDUs contained in A-MPDU frames. This
    results in dropped packets and severely impacted throughput.
    
    As a workaround, don't indicate support for A-MSDUs contained in
    A-MPDUs. This improves throughput over mesh links by factor 10.
