802.11-2012 13.13.2.2.3:

The mesh STA checks if the transmitter of the Beacon frame or Probe
Response frame is in the
process of the TBTT adjustment (see 13.13.4.4.3). If the received
frame contains the Mesh
Configuration element and the TBTT Adjusting subfield in the Mesh
Configuration field is 1, the
mesh STA shall invalidate the T offset value for this neighbor STA and
shall not perform the
following steps.

so, no? I think we need to indicate a TSF adjustment is taking place.
