[PATCH] ipw2200: SIOCGIWFREQ ioctl returns frequency rather than channel
The SIOCGIWFREQ ioctl fills the request structure's freq field by setting
the exponent to 0 and the mantissa to the current channel number. The
iwconfig tool works around this behaviour by looking up the frequency
from the channel table if a frequency below 1kHz is returned, other tools
(e.g. kwlaninfo) don't. According to the comment in the iwconfig source
the driver is supposed to return the frequency, not the channel number.
