a EHT AP is MLD AP, should we still need an extra config, Also why mld_id is needed as extra config? Can we identify using interface name that all the bss belong to same ML AP
with unique interface name?

Should user care about link id, can we have it generated by hostapd instead based on the interfaces list and freq.

The mld_capa and eml capa should come from the driver/hw right?
