This fixes a problem under high load: kernel: [20386.250913] mesh_queue_preq: 235 callbacks suppressed kernel: [20386.253335] Mesh HWMP (mesh0): PREQ node queue full kernel: [20386.253352] Mesh HWMP (mesh0): PREQ node queue full (...) The 802.11s protocol has a provision to limit the rate of path requests (PREQs) are transmitted (dot11MeshHWMPpreqMinInterval) but there was no limit on the rate at which PREQs were being queued up. There is a valid reason for queuing PREQs: this way we can even out PREQ bursts. But queueing multiple PREQs for the same destination is useless.
