[PATCH] mac80211: mesh formation info properly set

[Jacob Minshall <jacob@cozybit.com>]

Max peerings capped at 63 in accordance with IEEE-2012 8.4.2.100.7,
and trigger a beacon regeneration every time the number of peerings
changes. Previously this would only happen if the "accepting peerings"
bit changed.
