 Replying to [comment:1 ashish]:
 > The attached patch
 http://dev.laptop.org/attachment/ticket/6818/mesh_mcast.patch populates
 default multicast addresses in the firmware when IP address is assigned to
 mshX interface.
 > This fixes mesh view problem in firmware version 22.p8/9.
 > This patch is not tested for any other side that it might have.

 Tested a kernel with this patch and confirm that Mesh view is back to
 normal.
 Please keep this open until driver patch is committed.
