We've not been able to keep ABI compatiblity with the kernel of the official OpenWrt images.
Therefore, Gluon now generates a opkg repository with modules itself.

Gluon now supports using 802.11s for its mesh links instead of IBSS (Adhoc). This will allow supporting
WLAN hardware which can't to AP and IBSS mode simultaneously in the future (like Ralink/Mediatek).

Note that batman-adv is still used on top of 802.11s (and 802.11s forwarding is disabled), the mesh routing protocol

similar facilities
