I'd prefer if this was a validation on the input from userspace directly
in cfg80211, that way other drivers that want to implement this don't
have to bother.
That probably goes well with the validation of the supported mask that I
asked for.

Why is this not just a static const that you fill manually? There's
nothing that's not constant here. So e.g.
static const struct ieee80211_ht_cap mac80211_ht_capa_mod_mask = {
.ampdu_params_info = IEEE80211_HT_AMPDU_PARM_FACTOR |
IEEE80211_HT_AMPDU_PARM_DENSITY,
.mcs = {
.rx_mask = { 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff,
0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff, },
},
/* etc */
};

No need for this then obviously.
Looks pretty good overall. This is _much_ more readable than the
previous series. :-)
