Yes.. Since it is AP only feature, I would add it to change_bss. This
variable is currently per-radio, but it might be reasonable to move it
to sdata. Though, it may be needed for IEEE80211_IF_TYPE_VLAN, too, and
change_bss is now IEEE80211_IF_TYPE_AP-only.. change_vif allows any type
to go through, so maybe that would be easier after all (and then either
just ignore the value for other iface types or make the configuration
attempt fail if this particular attribute is changed for non-AP/VLAN
iftype).
