 initialization. But it doesn't help with the second (mesh view). That
 seems unrelated to #6589. It seems a side effect of the changes in the
 firmware. If you judge that this firmware release is worth more time
 investment, I'm happy to do further analysis of the problem and post here.

 Thanks!
 I believe this is other problem, it will be very useful if you can provide
 the following information.
 1. Does mesh view based on mesh beacons and probe response?
 2. Could you please try out iwpriv msh0 bcn_control to see if beacons are
 enabled.
 2. And, also with the help of probe response API whether device is sending
 probe response.
