It seems from the regdumps that only PHY_SHIFT_5GHZ is being used,
weird. Anyway we'll have to work harder on this...

I was about to add some code to handle rfkill interrupts but i'll wait
for the rfkill framework in the kernel.  About txpower, well we don't
know much about txpower yet.

Can you plz see if madwifi-old-openhal works for you and also plz make
some more traces, especially for phy related functions and post them
here.
