I've applied patches 1-4 now.
The subject is a bit long - I was going to change it to
mac80211: mesh: support sending wide bandwidth CSA
To support HT and VHT channel switch announcements, both beacons
and action frames must include the corresponding IEs.
but:

The "2 + 2" should have a comment - no that I'm even really sure that
you need the wrapper?

Removing that is nice - but why do you do this:

I think having multiple calls to skb_put() would be better.

You can have one here, and re-initialize pos.

and likewise here.
That'd also be safer in a way.
