Ack, will amend in v2.

IMHO, it would be outside of the scope of this patch which implements
changes since the last Singapore regulation release. I would prefer a
separate patch to comment out 5470-5725MHz, which can later be
reverted/uncommented once a decision is reached.

Though my opinion would be that a separate patchset that universally
addresses all the interpreted/grey-area TPC offsets, would be more
appropriate, once that decision is reached.

Anyway, I'll defer to your decision as the maintainer; I'll keep this
band in my patchv2 meanwhile and do a v3 if I'm not in time for your
decision.

As above.

Ack, will amend in v2.

Thanks for reviewing.
