Subject: [PATCH] ath6kl: Set HT caps when an interface is added

From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <[email protected]>

Set HT capabilites when a vif is added (based on ht_supported
advertized is 'true'). ath6kl_set_htcap
seems to be called when an AP vif is added but not so in
other vifs. Fix this.

This was found during code review, right? Or does it fix a real bug?
