6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Peter Chiu <chui-hao.chiu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit da8352da1e4f476fdbf549a4efce4f3c618fde3b ]
The non-AP interfaces would not use conf->vht_ldpc so they never set
STA_CAP_VHT_LDPC even if peer-station support LDPC.
Check conf->vht_ldpc only for AP interface.
Without this patch, station only uses BCC to transmit packet in VHT mode.
