This looks like it has endian bugs. Note that sband->ht_cap is
ieee80211_sta_ht_cap, whereas sdata->u.mgd.ht_capa[_mask] is
ieee80211_ht_cap -- the latter is in IEEE format (LE) while the former
is in a complete different format that's easier to digest for the
CPU :-)

So, the ht-caps & mask data coming from user-space via netlink
should be in network-byte order?

Or do you want me to flip the bytes around when copying
it into the u.mgd.ht_cap structs?

Thanks,
Ben
