Whether this can be used under "iw offchannel" with
NL80211_CMD_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL?

Are you asking if I would accept wide
channel extensions to R-O-C?

Yes, adding bandwidth config to existing command.

Something like this,

iw offchannel <freq> [HT40+|HT40-|80MHz] <duration>

Still I guess I'd like to see an actual reason for it.

Wide band scan is actually moving to a off-channel for a
specified duration to capture 40, 80Mhz data frames.

So, I hope offchannel would accommodate this extension.
