----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 The attached patch will fix a "cosmetic" problem with the quater dBm value
 parsed from the HAL to the IEEE 802.11 stack.

 The HAL delivers the values for min and max power in .25 dBm values
 already, the values are parsed in to the priv struct converting the values
 to .25 dBm again. So effectively   ichan->ic_maxpower and
 ichan->ic_minpower are in .125 dBm values!

 These values don't influence the Tx power used by the card, but are used
 in information ellements like the 802.11h information ellement.

 The attached patch will fix this.
