Dear Maintainer,
802.11ax has been standardised; we can just enable the CONFIG_IEEE80211AX option.

Dear Maintainer,
please enable the CONFIG_IEEE80211AX option. WiFi-6 compatible USB WiFi Adapters like CF-953AX based on chipset mt7921au are now available and it would be unfortunate to keep requiring Debian users to recompile hostapd to use them.
Thank you
