From: Sebastian Gottschall <s.gottsch...@dd-wrt.com>
current handling of peer_bw_rxnss_override parameter is based on guessing the
VHT160/8080 capability by rx rate. this is wrong and may lead
to a non initialized peer_bw_rxnss_override parameter which is required since
VHT160 operation mode only supports 2x2 chainmasks in addition the original code
initialized the parameter with wrong masked values.
This patch uses the peer phymode and peer nss information for correct
initialisation of the peer_bw_rxnss_override parameter.
if this peer information is not available, we initialize the parameter by
minimum nss which is suggested by QCA as temporary workaround according
to the QCA sourcecodes.

v2: remove debug messages
v3: apply some cosmetics, update documentation
v4: fix compile warning and truncate nss to maximum of 2x2 since current
chipsets only support 2x2 at vht160
v5: handle maximum nss for chipsets supportig vht160 with 1x1 only
v7: use more simple code variant and take care about hw/sw chainmask
configuration

From: Sebastian Gottschall <s.gottschall@dd-wrt.com>
starting with firmware 10.4.3.4.x series QCA changed the handling of the channel property band_center_freq1 and band_center_freq2 in vht160 operation mode
likelly for backward compatiblity with vht80 only capable clients.
this patch adjusts the handling to get vht160 to work again with official qca firmwares newer than 3.3
consider that this patch will not work with older firmwares anymore. to avoid undefined behaviour this we disable vht160 capability for outdated firmwares
