It is neater and more consistent with the rest of the document to use the
BIT() macro from 'linux/bitops.h' to define the WLAN_CAPABILITY_*
bitmasks. In the case of WLAN_CAPABILITY_DMG_TYPE_{IBSS, PBSS, AP},
bitshifting integers by 0 does nothing, so there is no reason to do it in
the code; replace these values with plain integers.

In the commit message for all of these, what is the "document" to which you refer?

I'm not quite sure why you split these changes into 3 parts, but I guess that is OK.
