I had been looking, but didn't consider that where you say "4.18" you
probably meant "4.18.xyz" for some stable version of 4.18 ...
Now that I look at that, I think most likely the reason is commit
119f94a6fefc ("cfg80211: Address some corner cases in scan result
channel updating") which was backported to the 4.18 series.
Before this commit, we'd have used the DS element all the time, after
this commit we'd trust the RX channel on 5 GHz...
Here's a test to reproduce this:

However, I think the only reasonable way to fix this is in wmediumd:
