Add support for those, along with a corresponding kernel config option to disable them by default. Note that these channels are not selectable even if the option has been compiled unless the user modifies the regulatory database to explicitly enable the corresponding channels. NOTE: These channels must not be used in most regulatory domains unless you have a license from the FCC or similar!
