[ATH6KL]: driver only supports limited channels in 5GHz band

[Mike Engel]

Hi Ben,

it seems that the firmware version we use doesn't support that
(3.4.0.225). We have got received some information from Qualcomm
mention that. I will also try to give the hostapd a try to see what we
get.

Thanks again for all your help and input.

Thanks,
