Small question from my side. If phyX will support 3 bands (2.4/5/6)
what this channes<=2 limitation mean here for APs?
 a) can I setup APs on 2412 and 5180
 b) or even can setup APs on 2412 and 2462?
 c) or setup APs on 5180 and 6055?
How could I know a or b or c is allowed?

BTW, do you plan to share same firmware (with 2 possible APs) for
ath12k and WCN7850?
