So, this helper API I introduced in cfg80211 since struct
link_station_info is defined and primarily used
there. Keeping allocation and lifetime management in cfg80211 ensures
consistent ownership and cleanup once the link_station_info is consumed.
Please let me know if I understood your concern correctly, or if you
were referring to something else in this patch.
