Incidentally, this means that dual-band drivers now absolutely need to
take a look at the scan channel list that is provided since if they
ignore it they will end up doing two full scans instead of one. Since
wl1271 is the only driver this affects right now, and its 5ghz support
is disabled, this seems ok to me.
