Hi,
I dont know if this is the correct way to do it.
if you run "ifconfig wlan0 mac:kick address" you will get Invalid
argument error because there is no code for MBSS.
This is patch makes it possible to kick a mesh node, useful when for
example you have some entries left "dead" in your table awaiting node
reclaim timeout.
Because there is no auth/assoc code for mesh I guess this is enough
(maybe we can try to send CLOSE LINK to the entry we kick so that it
updates its entries?):
