...mmm... I can't merge the patch now so I try to read it "as is"
I understand that the only difference between 818 and 816 driver is the 
match_model and you changed the 816 freq ranges to be "larger".
If this is right I can't see a reason to have different drivers for the 
the two models instead of simply renaming the 816 driver to 
"KG816/KG816" with the enlarged ranges.

My two cents ...
