 This is not really an IBSS specific issue. It applies to WDS or monitor mode
 as well.

 Excellent point!

 If we want to properly enforce Annex J channel pairs, this needs to
 be moved to cfg80211.

 This does not still address the issue of one peer finding out it
 cannot deal with an HT40 pair and correcting the topology and
 propagating this out. Not yet sure if for 802.11ac we'll need
 something similar but its worth considering.

Sorry I meant section 11.14.3.2 which deals with neighboring BSSes
from the scan list, the annex J stuff would still need to be done by
all the initial radiators too though for a primary.
If we need to handle this properly in the initial patch, then this can probably only be done in a simple way by not supporting HT40 yet. It should still support joining an IBSS with a different HT opmode though.
