I see, I try to use git-email in future to automatize the submission process and
hope that would improve the form.
The draft/v0 patch was posted on ath9k-devel, I re-posted this one to
linux-wireless after Mohammed suggested to post it here to have a broader
audience for discussion. Unfortunately I didn't repost the board-setup and
userspace patches as well, I'll try to prepare that in the next days.

Please excuse me being a noob when it comes to collaboration methods, trying to
emulate what I observe. I highly appreciate people showing me where and how I
can improve.

Should I completely skip adding it to the policy then or just ommit the length
restriction?

Ok, I haven't seen any devices with more than 2 possible antenna configuation
profiles (horizontal/vertical, built-in/external) so far, so giving the array a
fixed length of 4 should be fine for now.

No worries about that, I'll also be traveling in the next few weeks and we can
further discuss when Adrian has returned as well.
