[PATCH] brcmfmac: use wiphy_read_of_freq_limits to respect limits from DT

[PATCH] brcmfmac: use wiphy_read_of_freq_limits to respect limits from DT

[Rafał Miłecki]

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

This new helper reads extra frequency limits specified in DT and
disables unavailable chanels. This is useful for devices (like home
routers) with chipsets limited e.g. by board design.

In order to respect info read from DT we simply need to check for
IEEE80211_CHAN_DISABLED bit when constructing channel info.

This patch requires e691ac2f75b6 ("cfg80211: support ieee80211-freq-limit DT
property") that is currently in net-next.

Kalle: feel free to postpone this until merging net-next one day.

The compiler error is expected as this depends on a cfg80211 patch not
yet in wireless-drivers-next.

Thanks for documenting the dependency perfectly, makes my work a lot
easier. I'm expecting to merge net-next after my next pull request, most
likely early next week.
