Please post the radar detection rate results before and after this change.
Especially for ETSI at 30% channel load.

Why it's 0 here while ath10k is using 100us?

This is only valid when 1 radar pattern detected at a time.
But there are many locations that overlapped with multiple radar equipment.
How this change handles if 2 different radars detected at the same time?
Check out the radar operation center deployed.

What is this number 6 come from?
