ARGUMENTS

DESCRIPTION

Drivers can sometimes have custom regulatory domains which do not apply to a specific country. Drivers can use this to apply such custom regulatory domains. This routine must be called prior to wiphy registration. The custom regulatory domain will be trusted completely and as such previous default channel settings will be disregarded. If no rule is found for a channel on the regulatory domain the channel will be disabled. Drivers using this for a wiphy should also set the wiphy flag REGULATORY_CUSTOM_REG or cfg80211 will set it for the wiphy that called this helper.
