>Description:
        in sys/external/isc/atheros_hal/dist/ah_eeprom_v4k.c, lines 239 and
        followings:
        HALASSERT(AR5416_4K_NUM_CTLS <= sizeof(ee->ee_rdEdgesPower)/NUM_EDGES);

        for (i = 0; ee->ee_base.ctlIndex[i] != 0 && i < AR5416_4K_NUM_CTLS; i++)
 {
                for (j = 0; j < NUM_EDGES; j ++) {
                        /* XXX Confirm this is the right thing to do when an inv
alid channel is stored */
                        if (ee->ee_base.ctlData[i].ctlEdges[CTL_CHAIN][j].bChann
el == AR5416_BCHAN_UNUSED) {
                                rep[j].rdEdge = 0;
but ctlEdges[CTL_CHAIN] has only AR5416_4K_NUM_BAND_EDGES elements so we're
testing and using the wrong data here.

>How-To-Repeat:
        code inspection (and gcc -O3)
>Fix:
        I'm not sure replacing NUM_EDGES with AR5416_4K_NUM_BAND_EDGES
        here is enough. rep[] has NUM_EDGES elements and I don't know what do
        do with the exess elements, nor with the pointer arithmetic
        done on it later.
