Refer https://github.com/o11s/open80211s/wiki/Status. Not so sure it
is fully updated, but can serve as your guidance. Also, go to
https://github.com/o11s/open80211s/wiki/HOWTO.

As long as the features are upstream. You should get that.

Depends on your wireless chipset. For 2 nodes environment, you should
able to get almost the similar throughput for AP-STA in HT mode.

Yes, refer here:
https://github.com/o11s/open80211s/wiki/Mesh-Powersave-Implementation-Notes.
You may ask Marco Posch on this.

backport should be alright, or else you checkout from
https://github.com/o11s/open80211s for specific feature not upstream.
