I guess what your patch does is send multicast frames as broadcast UWB packets. It would be more efficient to send them as multicast UWB packets but I'm assuming that the support for forming such multicast groups doesn't exist yet. I'm happy to apply the patch as is provided you send me a version that's not line wrapped.
