Nope (I think you'll find this is true of most/all drivers).

Most of the intelligence is in the upper layers (mac80211), which are
documented on http://wireless.kernel.org/.  Most of the work to enable
it will be in those layers, as Luis said.  BTW search the list, several
people have proposed ideas for an infrastructure for channel width
setting.

 Until we have a
 clean way to set this through cfg80211/nl80211 (which is an ongoing
 discussion) we wont support 5/10Mhz operation but you can try and let
 us know.
 

 I believe the cfg80211/nl80211 changes is probably the bulk of the
 work that does need to get done. Someone motivated just needs to do
 it.
