{nl,cfg,mac}80211: let userspace make meshif mesh gate
Allow userspace to set NL80211_MESHCONF_GATE_ANNOUNCEMENTS attribute, which will advertise this mesh node as being a mesh gate. NL80211_HWMP_ROOTMODE must be set or this will do nothing. Signed-off-by: Javier Cardona <javier@cozybit.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
