Research direction
No source files or tests are identified in the report. First reproduce the 802.11s mesh plus 2.4 GHz AP configuration on ramips/mt7621 using OpenWrt 24.10.0 and compare it with 23.05.5, collecting the missing diffconfig and relevant startup logs; done means both interfaces come up together without removing either configuration.
