You can run "grep" the following definition, which is used by Panda board.
CONFIG_WL12XX_PLATFORM_DATA
It will increase small bits in WLAN driver but discard platform data from init section at booting time.

todo list. If you can do this it would be awesome.
I did it but because my hw2.0 AR6003 has another problem, I couldn't go further.

Also we need to provide some clock configuration from the board file and
I'm sure there will be more in the future. But let's start with the
power control.
Yeah, I really would like to use separate file for ath6kl.
