The control interface was setup for OpenBTS, which does not make a
distinction between independent channel gain. So I locked both gain
settings to the primary channel (the one that initializes the device).

For better osmo-bts usage, I split the gain settings in the same way
that we discussed for the tuning setting. Note that this breaks
OpenBTS usage, but that fix should really be in core and not the
transceiver.

Very strange indeed. That's a bug. Fixed in the same patch.
