I think you should clarify how this interacts with puncturing.

Are disabled subchannels not considered part of the chandef, so if e.g.
you have an 80 MHz channel with one disabled subchannel, only the lowest
_three_ bits are taken into account, rather than the usual four for an
80 MHz chandef?

Or, perhaps more easily, are disabled subchannels part of the bitmap and
then must be zero since there cannot be incumbent signal on them that
matters, since we don't even use them? Should the code perhaps then
check that those bits are indeed zero?

Or something else entirely?
