David, thanks for the patch!  Unfortunately, I'm not really sure
what you are fixing.  Could you change your changelog to explain what
problem you are fixing?  Just telling me that you changed something
doesn't tell me what was wrong with it in the first place.

Also, please make sure you follow the suggestions here:

        http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html

I look forward to your next post...thanks!

John

John,
thanks for your comments and suggestion.
With the mesh code reviewed, the following is just my opinion,
* When mesh RREQ frame received and its sequence number is greater than the previous      
   one or the previous installed one is invalid,  it seems that the mesh path flag could set to 
   be valid again after the sequence number updated.
* When try to ack the rreq with rrep, checking the original TTL value seems to be more
   proper.
* When peer link confirm frame received, the base address will step forward 4 bytes,  it
   makes more sense with the base length increased with 4 bytes.

David
