The enclosing parentheses are unnecessary.

Also, if you run checkpatch.pl on your patch, you'll see
the following:

CHECK: Logical continuations should be on the previous line
#12: FILE: drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_ieee80211.c:367:
+	if (((pregistrypriv->wireless_mode & WIRELESS_11_5N)
+	      || (pregistrypriv->wireless_mode & WIRELESS_11_24N))

CHECK: Logical continuations should be on the previous line
#13: FILE: drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_ieee80211.c:368:
+	      || (pregistrypriv->wireless_mode & WIRELESS_11_24N))
+	      && (pregistrypriv->ht_enable)) {


It'd be nice to fix the above, too. :)
