Subject: [PATCH] mac80211 : Add support to track mesh peer beacon miss event

From: Hari Chandrakanthan <[email protected]>

Mesh peer beacon miss log helps in debugging mesh connectivity
related issues.

Set dbg_mask to track the mesh peer beacon miss event
cmd to set dbg_mask :
echo 0xN > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/dbg_mask
N - 0,1

Set the timer period using bmiss_threshold.
cmd to set bmiss_threshold:
echo N > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phyX/netdev\:wlanX/bmiss_threshold
N - 1 to 255

I'm also really not sure I want to get behind another bespoke debug
configuration system ...
