In virtual interface structure, for each band separate ht cap
is needed. so that one can disable or enable ht capability band
wise.
This will fix the following issue:
1) Disable 11n from supplicant and start a P2P GO.
2) In beacon frames no HT-CAP IE is seen which is expected.
3) Now remove the P2P GO and kill the supplicant.
4) Beacon stops
5) Now using iw associate to an external AP in 5 GHZ
6) In 5 GHZ no HT IE going in assoc request but
when associated in 2.4 GHZ can see HT IES over the air
in assoc request.
In the code for del_beacon in cfg80211.c,set_ht_cap is being
called first for 2.4 GHZ and then for 5 GHZ. When called
for the first time for 2.4 GHZ the enable flag will be set to true
and so when called for the second time for 5 GHZ it just returns
after checking the flag.
Also using this one can have different HT capabilities
per band (for example one may decide not to use 20/40 in 2.4 GHZ
but use it in 5 GHZ). So maintaining a single context is not ok.
it is true for even the enable/disable flag and other HT
capabilities as well
