Latest findings...

The code in wpas_populate_assoc_ies() in the "Workaround" section calls
wpas_build_ext_capab() to create this extended capabilities IE. 
wpas_populate_assoc_ies() in turn calls wpas_ext_capab_byte() to actually put
the data into the IE.

In the 2.9 version, wpas_ext_capab_byte() fills the IE with all 0 values and
then truncates the IE to zero length.  Hence no extended capabilities IE is
created.

In the 2.10 version, wpas_ext_capab_byte() is actually populating data (see
comment #176) into the IE.
