Beacon elements might be changed by hostapd configuraion, so driver
should compare both IEs and PHY capabilities to get the least common
denominator before association.

v2: modify condition for mimo_dl_en
v5: rebase to staging tree

Have you tested this in station mode?  I tried merging this into my tree
and it broke station mode.  Symptom was that it associated, but could not
get DHCP.  It worked if I disabled AX mode and made it associate as 11ac.

I think root cause is probably that the beacon is never set in STA mode,
but the code building the MCU messages are unconditionally looking at
the values derived from the beacon caps when making decisions about bfer/bfee
and ldpc and such.

Thanks,
Ben
