This explicitly configures *HT capability* though - that's even the

OK, I see.
HT Capabilities element = Defined by hardware and software spec of the
node. So it does not be modified after boot.
HT Operation element = Defined by surrounding environment and
configuration of the node. So it could be modified after boot.
So, if the node supports HT40, HT Capabilities shows HT40 is capable.
Now, I understand why you rejected this patch.
But now, when disable_ht=1, no HT Capabilities element in beacon even
though the node supports HT.
My trailing patch could solve the issue.
