We have no 11h support in mac80211. Not too sure what part would be
required in drivers. First step would be to disable using all 11h
channels for now as we don't have support for it. In wireless-testing
you can check for this if the channel flag has IEEE80211_CHAN_RADAR.
Some initial 11h patches were posted a while back for RFC, you can
search for those as well. We will soon look into this as well if its
not yet completed.
