things, we just don't use them if we disable HT40.

Or do you mean difference between "hardware capability" and "software capability" ? Do you think IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 bit should be 1 if the hardware capable of HT40 even though HT40 is disabled by wpa_supplicant/hostapd ?

I have tested with hostapd. I compared these 2 configfiles.

hostapd0.conf
	ht_capab=[HT40-]
hostapd1.conf
	#ht_capab=[HT40-]

The IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 bit in beacon was below.

hostapd0.conf
	IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 = 1
hostapd1.conf
	IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 = 0

So I think the bit should be zero if disabled also for mesh peer.
