From: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanthakumar.thiagarajan@oss.qualcomm.com>
Add utility API cfg80211_get_radio_idx_by_chan() to retrieve the radio
index corresponding to a given channel in a multi-radio wiphy.
This utility function can be used when we want to check the radio-specific
data for a channel in a multi-radio wiphy. For example, it can help
determine the radio index required to handle a scan request. This index
can then be used to decide whether the scan can proceed without
interfering with ongoing DFS operations on another radio.

I believe we also discussed this in the past elsewhere, but I don't
think the the >= and <= can simultaneously be wrong. If the frequency
ranges for radios are adjacent, then the intervals here need to be half
open. I _think_ it should be < instead of <=, and therefore a half-open
interval of "[start, end[" (or "[start, end)" depending on your
preferred notation.)

Sure, will use half-open interval ([start, end[) in next version.

"simultaneously be correct". I meant "correct", not "wrong"...
