cfg80211: add wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()
This adds wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() to be used by drivers prior to wiphy registration to apply a custom regulatory domain. This can be used by drivers that do not have a direct 1-1 mapping between a regulatory domain and a country. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
