Maybe we should leave this to the driver?

And it should certainly depend on actual VHT capability, I'd say? Seems
confusing if we ended up with a driver that doesn't have VHT but says it
has VHT_IBSS :)

For now that'll only be used by IBSS (perhaps mesh in the future?), but
maybe it should just be in ibss.c until it's used more?

If you list 11n (don't think you need to) maybe also ist 11ac? :)
Or just remove 11n.

That should perhaps be a separate patch? Also - it seems you need to
check somewhere that people aren't configuring 80 MHz with disable-VHT?
And similar for HT actually - is this new?
