When station is connected to a 6 GHz AP, it has 2 way to configure

WMI_PDEV_PARAM_TXPOWER_LIMIT2G/WMI_PDEV_PARAM_TXPOWER_LIMIT5G to
firmware, the second way is to send WMI_VDEV_SET_TPC_POWER_CMDID to
firmware which include more parameters for power control.
The first way is disabled in previous patch
"ath11k: discard BSS_CHANGED_TXPOWER when EXT_TPC_REG_SUPPORT for 6
GHz".
Prepare the parameter for wmi command WMI_VDEV_SET_TPC_POWER_CMDID and
send the firmware after vdev start response success from firmware, it
is for the second way of power control.

So we are passing local copy of channel context stored in
arvif->chanctx. Do we need to update it when channel changes?
I see that during assignment time, we are copying/updating it and
accordingly the command will be sent to firmware, but what about when
STA moves channel? arvif->chanctx should be updated and tpc command
should be sent again in that case?
This has been discussed before here per question of Johannes:"Could this
information change? Should we track it in beacons?":
