According to the 802.11ac amendment: "The IEEE 802.11 VHT STA operates in frequency bands below 6 GHz excluding the 2.4 GHz band", so at least the spec. is clear about it. However, I guess it would be possible to enable VHT for 2.4 as well to enjoy some of benefits, but do you see a reason/use case to enable it also for hwsim?
