in Table 9-251—Supported VHT-MCS and NSS Set subfields, it has Subfield 
VHT Extended
NSS BW Capable, its Definition is:
Indicates whether the STA is capable of
interpreting the Extended NSS BW
Support subfield of the VHT Capabilities
Information field

so it should check the Subfield VHT Extended NSS BW Capable in 
vht_cap->vht_mcs firstly, if
it is 0, then not allowed to check IEEE80211_VHT_CAP_EXT_NSS_BW_MASK of 
vht_cap->cap.
please correct me if wrong.
