mac80211: fix unnecessary beacon update after peering status change
ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify is called everytime a peer link is established or closed, because the accepting_plinks flag in the meshconf IE *might* have changed. With this patch the corresponding functions return the BSS_CHANGED_BEACON flag when a beacon update is necessary. Also it makes mesh_accept_plinks_update the common place to update the accepting_plinks flag. mesh_accept_plinks_update is called upon plink change and also periodically from ieee80211_mesh_housekeeping. Thus, it also picks up changes of local->num_sta. Signed-off-by: Marco Porsch <marco.porsch@etit.tu-chemnitz.de> Acked-by: Thomas Pedersen <thomas@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
