You should use these
ftp://ftp.maths.tcd.ie/usr/include/net80211/ieee80211_regdomain.h

CTRY_GUYANA		= 328

Regulatory data is maintained separately in the wireless-regdb project.

https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/regulatory/wireless-regdb

As you noted GY is there already. The Atheros driver lacking a GY annotation is up to the atheros driver, that needs to be addressed upstream and is therefore not a backports specific issue. You should address this upstream:

For that see:

The regd_common.h file is part of the ath module. As the Linux kernel ath module maintainer, I welcome a patch but you must post it to the linux-wireless list and also get Kalle Vallo to review it as he is at Atheros can also help review Atheros' own position on this.
