TX power delta can be negative. TX_PWR_CFG_ registers allow to set delta
only in range between 0 dBm and 15 dBm (4 bits for each rate). Se we
need to use BBP_R1 to configure negative deltas.

Not utilize +6 dBm increasing BBP_R1 option for safety reason. For now,
this can be used for devices, which export maximum allowed TX power
value.
