Thanks, both patches applied.

Subject: [PATCH V2 2/2] ath6kl: Configure htcap in fw based on the channel type in AP mode

This patch disables HT in start_ap if the type of the channel on
which the AP mode is going to be operating is non-HT. HT is enabled
with default ht cap setting if the operating channel is going to be
11n.
