    cfg80211: enforce disabling channels by custom or strict settings · cc493e4f
    Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
    If a custom regulatory domain is passed and if a rule for a
    channel indicates it should be disabled that channel should
    always remain disabled as per its documentation and design.
    
    Likewise if WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY flag is set and a
    regulatory_hint() is issued if a channel is disabled that
    channel should remain disabled.
    
    Without this change only drivers that set the _orig flags
    appropriately on their own would ensure disallowed channels
    remaind disabled. This helps drivers save code by relying on
    the APIS provided to entrust channels that should not be enabled
    be respected by only having to use wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()
    or regulatory_hint() with the WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY set.
    
    If wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() is used together with
    WIPHY_FLAG_STRICT_REGULATORY and a regulatory_hint() issued
    later, the incoming regulatory domain can override previously
    set _orig parameters from the initial custom regulatory
    setting.
