 * guesses on regulatory to help with world roaming. This is only used for
 * world roaming -- when we do not know our current location. This is
 * only useful on channels 12, 13 and 14 on the 2 GHz band as channels
 * 1-11 are already enabled by the world regulatory domain; and on
 * non-radar 5 GHz channels.
 *
 * Drivers do not need to call this, cfg80211 will do it for after a scan
 * on a newly found BSS. If you cannot make use of this feature you can
 * set the wiphy->disable_beacon_hints to true.

 *
 * We will intersect the rd with the what CRDA tells us should apply
 * for the alpha2 this country IE belongs to, this prevents APs from
 * sending us incorrect or outdated information against a country.
 *
 * The AP is expected to provide Country IE channel triplets for the
 * band it is on. It is technically possible for APs to send channel
 * country IE triplets even for channels outside of the band they are
 * in but for that they would have to use the regulatory extension
 * in combination with a triplet but this behaviour is currently
 * not observed. For this reason if a triplet is seen with channel
 * information for a band the BSS is not present in it will be ignored.

 * If we suspend, go to another country and resume we'll automatically
 * get disconnected shortly after resuming and things will be reset as well.
 * This routine is a helper to restore regulatory settings to how they were
 * prior to our first connect attempt. This includes ignoring country IE and
 * beacon regulatory hints. The ieee80211_regdom module parameter will always
 * be respected but if a user had set the regulatory domain that will take
