The second object (external 5 GHz phy) doesn't have an EEPROM of its
own, and is created explicitly with just this band enabled:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7615/pci_init.c#L104
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7615/init.c#L573

So it won't hit the logic change and it will be limited to 5 GHz.
