Would it really go above 80 cols if you didn't line-wrap it? Maybe
remove the extra sets of parentheses? And even if it goes to a little
bit above 80 it's still be more readable without the wrapping ...

One thing I don't quite understand: Why don't you calculate the HT caps
to use upon assoc request, and then store *those* instead, then you
wouldn't have to check the overrides every time.

For example here:

This just adds complexity. If you calculate sdata->used_ht_caps first
then you can replace the sband->ht_cap.cap check with an
sdata->used_ht_caps.cap check and be done with it, instead of having to
check both.
