This seems to indicate whether to program the NIC for fractional 5ghz
mode (ie, 5mhz spaced channels, rather than 10 or 20mhz spacing) or not.
The default (0) seems to mean "only program fractional mode if needed".
A different value (eg 1) seems to always enable fractional 5ghz mode
regardless of the frequency.

I've tested this locally and it does indeed read and attach to an AR9287
EEPROM. But a lot more code needs to be ported over to the HAL before
the AR9287 is functional.
I'm importing this separate from the rest of the codebase (and unlinked from
the build for now) in case someone wishes to begin fiddling with porting
the rest of the code over from Linux ath9k.

This is something bus clock related from what I can gather. It is needed for
the AR9220 based Ubiquiti SR71-12 and SR71-15 Mini-PCI NICs.
(Note: those NICs don't work right now because of earlier changes to handle
power table offset correctly. That'll be resolved in a follow-up commit.)
It defaults to -5 dBm for eeproms earlier than v21.
This apparently only applies to Merlin (AR9280) or later,
earlier 11n chipsets have a power table offset of 0.
All the code in ath9k which checks the power table offset
and takes it into account first ensures the chip is
Merlin or later.
