Hmm. It's hidden behind "MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU", which already should be
discouragement, there's nothing in there that the user should ever
select unless they're developing/debugging on this.

I can word the help text more strongly, perhaps? Or make the debug menu
also depend on CONFIG_EXPERT (but most people seem to set that
anyway ...)?

I'm happy to change this, but am not entirely sure how to discourage its
use any further than we already do. Any suggestions?
