the theory is here:
http://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV7/Agenda?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=2014-05-17_wbmv7_DFS.pdf

on short - it is a problem for IBSS/adhoc:
if somebody sends a CSA / channel switch announcement which is
not "signed/thrusted", you must switch.

also:
"somebody" can just mark all channels as "unavailable".

the question is: is it really implemented in IBSS mode and
what about vif's? (adhoc + ap)
