As a result of the variances across geographies and various
manufacturers hardware cards, and the channels they support and have
tested against, we're moving the channel maps out of the ieee80211_geo
code and back into the drivers.  Otherwise we'll end up with a mismatch
of what the ieee80211_geo code thinks is supported vs. what may actually
be supported by the cards.

The ieee80211_geo code will provide some helper functions for verifying
channels, etc. but the actual channel maps will need to come from the
drivers themselves.

I'll be putting up some updated code in GIT tomorrow that does this.
