3.5.7.2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka at redhat.com>

commit bf7e1abe434ba9e22e8dc04a4cba4ab504b788b8 upstream.

Some hardware has correct (!= 0xff) value of tssi_bounds[4] in the
EEPROM, but step is equal to 0xff. This results on ridiculous delta
calculations and completely broke TX power settings.
