Well that's because the spec version was updated in wireless-next :)

So please adjust according to the new fields there.

It will be some time before I get a chance to revisit this.  If you can
accept as is, I'll fix the remaining bits when I move to 6.5 or whatever
mainline kernel has the updated spec.


Actually I think it was just this field, so maybe I can just take v1.

After doing some more detailed testing, I notice that this capa logic is using
the AP's capability list, and is not showing lowest common features.  For instance,
a 2x2 STA radio shows as this when connected to 4x4 AP:

...
		EHT bw <= 80 MHz, max NSS for MCS 8-9: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 80 MHz, max NSS for MCS 10-11: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 80 MHz, max NSS for MCS 12-13: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 160 MHz, max NSS for MCS 8-9: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 160 MHz, max NSS for MCS 10-11: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 160 MHz, max NSS for MCS 12-13: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 320 MHz, max NSS for MCS 8-9: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 320 MHz, max NSS for MCS 10-11: Rx=4, Tx=4
		EHT bw <= 320 MHz, max NSS for MCS 12-13: Rx=4, Tx=4

I would expect it to show Rx=2, Tx=2 in this case.

Any opinions on how or whether to change this?  Do we already store a combined
capabilities list somewhere in mac80211 for EHT?

Thanks,
Ben
