+/**
+ * enum ieee80211_hw_flags - hardware flags
+ *
+ * These flags are used to indicate hardware capabilities to
+ * the stack. Generally, flags here should have their meaning
+ * done in a way that the simplest hardware doesn't need setting
+ * any particular flags. There are some exceptions to this rule,
+ * however, so you are advised to review these flags carefully.
+ *
+ * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_GEN_BEACON_TEMPLATE:
+ *	The device only needs to be supplied with a beacon template.
+ *	If you need the host to generate each beacon then don't use
+ *	this flag and call ieee80211_beacon_get() when you need the
+ *	next beacon frame. Note that if you set this flag, you must
+ *	implement the set_tim() callback for powersave mode to work
+ *	properly.
+ *	This flag is only relevant for access-point mode.
+ *
+ * @IEEE80211_HW_RX_INCLUDES_FCS:
+ *	Indicates that received frames passed to the stack include
+ *	the FCS at the end.
+ *
+ * @IEEE80211_HW_HOST_BROADCAST_PS_BUFFERING:
+ *	Some wireless LAN chipsets buffer broadcast/multicast frames
+ *	for power saving stations in the hardware/firmware and others
+ *	rely on the host system for such buffering. This option is used
+ *	to configure the IEEE 802.11 upper layer to buffer broadcast and
+ *	multicast frames when there are power saving stations so that
+ *	the driver can fetch them with ieee80211_get_buffered_bc(). Note
+ *	that not setting this flag works properly only when the
+ *	%IEEE80211_HW_HOST_GEN_BEACON_TEMPLATE is also not set because
+ *	otherwise the stack will not know when the DTIM beacon was sent.
+ *
+ * @IEEE80211_HW_DEFAULT_REG_DOMAIN_CONFIGURED:
+ *	Channels are already configured to the default regulatory domain
+ *	specified in the device's EEPROM
