[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.10 01/27] wifi: nl80211: disallow setting special AP channel widths

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2024-07-28 00:53:32
Also in: linux-wireless, lkml, stable
Subsystem: 802.11 (including cfg80211/nl80211), the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

From: Johannes Berg <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 23daf1b4c91db9b26f8425cc7039cf96d22ccbfe ]

Setting the AP channel width is meant for use with the normal
20/40/... MHz channel width progression, and switching around
in S1G or narrow channels isn't supported. Disallow that.
