If I understood you correctly.. I can create new
NL80211_ATTR_HW_CAPABILITY (u32) attribute which will advertise all
capabilities with "dev->wiphy.flags".

No, I don't think you can advertise wiphy.flags since those flags are
internal -- you'll have to map single wiphy flags to single capability
flags which are also defined in nl80211.h.

I'd call it "NL80211_ATTR_CAPABILITIES" to sidestep the issue of it
being a driver of HW or whatever capability.

Sorry, I'm not sure that I'm entirely understand, you mean to create *nested* "NL80211_ATTR_CAPABILITIES" attribute which will contain all new capability flags, mapped from wiphy.flags? and to do it within existing nl80211_send_wiphy() function?

Thanks,
Victor.
