ath5k: allow AP and mesh mode to operate simultaneously
This patch allows the possibility of having the mesh point and AP to be operated simultaneously in one single radio. Previously, mesh point fails to generate the mesh beacon if virtual AP is created for the same radio. Signed-off-by: Chun-Yeow Yeoh <yeohchunyeow@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
