Current break down does leave us with the oddity of a chip_info
structure that suggests the chip only supports a subset of
stuff that then grows.  I agree with Nuno that first bunch of
patches would look better combined. Normally I'd ask for the
channel number thing I just asked as a precursor but seems it
will be ugly like that, so throwing that in as well is fine.
