Have you tested this with mac80211_hwsim? I'm seeing number of issues in
hwsim test cases with CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL_VHT=y with
wireless-testing.git. These disappear if I disable this build option.

For example, with nfc_p2p_go_neg test case:

[    7.023869] wlan1: authenticate with 02:00:00:00:00:00
[    7.024421] wlan1: Allocated STA 02:00:00:00:00:00
[    7.024426] wlan1: capabilities/regulatory prevented using AP HT/VHT configuration, downgraded

(note: this part happens also with minstrel_ht VHT supported disabled,
but the issues below don't)

...
