True, but we have to review this for the entire driver, we have several places
where we check the channel rather then the band. And even then we have
a FIXME somewhere (not sure who added it), which states that our registrations
of the bands are also possibly incorrect.
On the other hand, it also depends on the Ralink chips as well, I am not
even sure they support this channel 14 on both bands feature.
