Now that cfg80211 has its own regulatory infrastructure we can
condense ath9k's regulatory code considerably. We only keep data
we need to provide our own regulatory_hint(), reg_notifier() and
information necessary for calibration.
Atheros hardware supports 12 world regulatory domains, since these
are custom we apply them through the the new wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory().
Although we have 12 we can consolidate these into 5 structures based on
frequency and apply a different set of flags that differentiate them on
a case by case basis through the reg_notifier().
If CRDA is not found our own custom world regulatory domain is applied,
this is identical to cfg80211's except we enable passive scan on most

The RX code in ath9k uses sc_keymap to figure out whether a default
key was used. However, the default key entries in sc_keymap were
always set and as such, frames could have been claimed to be decrypted
by hardware when they were not. This can cause problems especially
with TKIP since mac80211 is validating the Michael MIC in the frame
and this will result in MIC failure and potentially TKIP
countermeasures if the frame was not decrypted correctly.
Change key cache slot allocation to mark only the keys that really
have been used in sc_keymap to avoid the issue. The key cache slot
selection routines are now internally avoiding the slots that may be
needed for TKIP group keys.
