Add VHT radiotap parsing support to ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap().
That capability has been tested using a d-link dir-860l rev b1 running
OpenWrt trunk and mt76 driver

This makes no sense, those are mac80211 internal flags, should document
the radiotap flags here, not what they map to internally.

I used the previous commit scheme (mac80211: Parse legacy and HT rate
in injected frames).
I will rewrite the documentation. Should I send v3 or a different patch?

Regards,
Lorenzo

Oh, I merged something similar there? My mistake.

Please resend, I didn't apply this. Perhaps you can (separately?) fix
the HT documentation as well then?

Thanks,

Should I resend just 2/2 or the first one as well? Ok, I will fix the
documentation in another patch

I applied the first one, no need to resend that.

Thanks!

 The injection code can also skip all other currently defined radiotap fields
 facilitating replay of captured radiotap headers directly.
