This patch series adds 6GHz frequency listing in ath11k driver and mac80211
registration for the 6GHz band. Also, extends some of wmi command tlvs for
supporting 6GHz.

changes in v5:
 - latest 6ghz patches on mac80211 expects driver not to pass ht/vht
   caps for 6GHZ band at device registration. so fix that.
 
changes in v4:
 - drop helper function to identify psc channel as different version is
   already merged.

changes in v3:
 - cfg80211: remove PSC channel flag and instead add helper function.
 - Address differences in 6GHZ frequencies between IEEE P802.11ax/D6.0
   and IEEE P802.11ax/D6.1

changes in v2:
 - Fixed ath11k_phymode to be set in 6GHZ band

Pradeep Kumar Chitrapu (8):
  ath11k: add 6G frequency list supported by driver
  ath11k: add support for 6GHz radio in driver
  ath11k: Use freq instead of channel number in rx path
  ath11k: extend peer_assoc_cmd for 6GHz band
  ath11k: set psc channel flag when sending channel list to firmware.
  ath11k: Add 6G scan dwell time parameter in scan request command
  ath11k: Send multiple scan_chan_list messages if required
  ath11k: Add support for 6g scan hint

What are the dependencies for this patch? Is everything that is in
mac80211-next as of today enough?

Also what I do with Rajkumar's patch:

[PATCH] ath11k: build HE 6 GHz capability

Should I apply it before or after this patchset?

Yes Kalle. current mac80211-next is enough.

Although there is no compile dependency with above patchset,
there will be 6ghz functionality dependency with above. So, IMO, its 
better
to apply after this patch set.

Thanks
