Driver can report IEEE80211_VHT_CAP_SUPP_CHAN_WIDTH_160MHZ so it's
important to provide valid & complete info about supported bands for
each channel. By default no support for 160 MHz should be assumed unless
firmware reports it for a given channel later.

This fixes info passed to the userspace. Without that change userspace
could try to use invalid channel and fail to start an interface.

Should this be queued to 4.20?

That's my suggestion.

I try to mark fixes (patches for currently developed release) with an
extra FIX tag in a subject. Do you see those when using your patchwork
tool? Do you have any other method in mind that would be preferred by
you?
