Read through the whole thread. It seems some comments from you needed to
be addressed and Vladimir wanted to evaluate it. So that was the end of
the thread.

What did pop up is the wiphy flags vs. nl80211 feature flags. When that
comes up it looks like 'potAtoes, potaetoes' to me.

So is there are clear design rule for when to use which flag. For me the
wiphy object represents the device/firmware and 4-way handshake offload
support is determined by what the device/firmware supports.
