mac80211: allow disabling 40MHz on 2.4GHz
In some situations it is required that a system be
configured with no support for 40 MHz channels in
the 2.4 GHz band. Rather than imposing any such
restrictions on everybody, allow configuration a
system like that with a module parameter. It is
writable at runtime but only takes effect at the
time of the next association.
