wifi: mt76: mt7915: add module param to select 5 GHz or 6 GHz on MT7916
commit 57af267d upstream. Due to a limitation in available memory, the MT7916 firmware can only handle either 5 GHz or 6 GHz at a time. It does not support runtime switching without a full restart. On older firmware, this accidentally worked to some degree due to missing checks, but couldn't be supported properly, because it left the 6 GHz channels uncalibrated. Newer firmware refuses to start on either band if the passed EEPROM data indicates support for both. Deal with this limitation by using a module parameter to specify the preferred band in case both are supported.
