Subject: rt2x00: error in configurations with mesh support disabled
From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6ef9e2f6d12ce9e2120916804d2ddd46b954a70b upstream.
If CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH is not set, cfg80211 will now allow advertising
interface combinations with NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT present.
Add appropriate ifdefs to avoid running into errors.
[Backported for 3.8-stable. Removed code of simultaneous AP and mesh
mode added in 4a5fc6d 3.9-rc1.]
