The 802.11s mesh network code is going to be running completely on the
firmware so the only pieces exposed to the host CPU are going to be the
various controls and diagnostic APIs.
For the moment mesh network specific controls are implemented via iwpriv
commands.
In general what should be going to wlanconfig and what to iwpriv?
