This is as useless as the one before. Why you didn't add there what you
already wrote:
rf2317 handled but not fully, when I tested ahb patch on bullet2 all
seemed to work fine, but it couldn't connect another host (ibss for
example). During an analysis I observed that it's transmitting on
another channel and then I looked into madwifi code and understood that
the problem is in channel setting function.

This is almost perfect and what people want to know. Especially those
who deal with distro bug reports and backport patches to distro kernels...
