Yeah but IMHO you're solving the wrong problem. If we want any
credibility we shouldn't allow users to ignore any regdom that easily,
and this is system-wide. Also, iwlwifi partly caused this problem in the
first place by printing out eeprom channels rather than having users use
"iwlist wlan0 channel" to see which channels are usable. Or even iw,
which shows you which are disabled.
