qcacmn: Control the size of the freq and chan_num (QDF)
Depending on the requirement, a bigger size or a smaller size for
the frequency variable can be chosen. The advantages of each size
are described below:
Advantage of a bigger size:
When two technologies (e.g. 802.11AX and 802.11AD) are controlled
by the same driver software, the frequency range may be very large
and a bigger size (e.g. 32bit integer) is more appropriate.
Advantage of a smaller size:
When the frequency range is not very large, a smaller size
(e.g. 16bit integer) can be used. It saves a large amount of space
especially when many large arrays containing elements of this
type/size are defined in the driver.
