I'm not completely sure about AR5416, but AR9160 should support 5/10 MHz channels. However mac80211 does not support HT-rates on 5/10 MHz channels, although the hardware supports it. The standard does not specify HT rates in narrow channels. If you want that, you might need to use hacks in ath9k while mac80211 thinks it is operating on 20 MHz (this would be non-standard behaviour, of course). I don't know about specific MCS rates though.
