As you probably saw, my idea was to call for a channel change during
the registration but you nacked that possibility so I'll indeed have
to set the symbol duration manually there.

.channels still being a bitfield, David allegedly reported that the
above line should use "& BIT(phy->current_channel)".

Oh right, I grepped for USEC_TO_NSEC but the macro was named the other
way around, thanks.
