Hm, we need to use MIN(rxmax) and MAX(density) regardless, right?

If an AP is transmitting to a STA that has a lower rxmax or higher
density, it should obey that.

The same rules apply for mesh, ibss, tdma operational modes.

So yes, what we should do is:

* initialise rxmax/density with the VAP capabilities
* track what the remote node rxmax/density is
* have a couple of functions that return the density and rxmax based
on the destination node and current VAP config
* teach the 11n drivers to use that.

Thanks,

Adrian
