Taiwan's Ministry of Transportation and Communications revised its
frequency allocation rules [1] on 2014/11/17, opening up 5150 ~ 5250
MHz to U-NII applications.

Taiwan's regulatory body, NCC, officially stated [3][4] that until
the technical regulatory standard [2] are updated to cover this part
of the spectrum, FCC rules (part 15E, 15.407, effective 2014/06/02)
shall serve in its place.

Also add AUTO-BW to this and the next (5250 ~ 5350 MHz) rule, so the
system can actually use VHT160 channels spanning these two rules.

It would really make more sense for an update to the US power limit in
5150-5250 to precede this one if you're using the US rules as the
justification for the power limit here. Going through these patches in
order, I was initially confused here why it didn't match the US rule
until I looked at the next patch.

But, as I mentioned in the reply to that patch, I think the change to
the US power limit is incorrect, thus this one would be incorrect as
well.
