[ Upstream commit 8723750e2753868591ba86a57b0041c5e38047ad ]

When wlan load, firmware report the reg code with 0x6C for QCA6174,
it is world reg which checked by ath_is_world_regd(), then the reg
will be save into reg_world_copy of ath_common in ath_regd_init().
Later the regulatory of ath_common is updated to another country
code such as "US" in ath_reg_notifier_apply() by below call stack.
After that, regulatory_hint() is called in ath10k_mac_register()
and it lead "iw reg get" show two regdomain info as below.

At this moment, the two regdomain info is same, when run "iw reg set KR",
the global regdomain info changed to KR, but the regdomain of phy#0
does not change again. It leads inconsistent values between global and
phy#0 as below.

country US: DFS-FCC

(5150 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 23), (N/A), AUTO-BW
(5250 - 5350 @ 80), (N/A, 23), (0 ms), DFS, AUTO-BW
(5470 - 5730 @ 160), (N/A, 23), (0 ms), DFS
(5730 - 5850 @ 80), (N/A, 30), (N/A)
(57240 - 71000 @ 2160), (N/A, 40), (N/A)

The initial reg code is 0x6C which saved in reg_world_copy of ath_common,
and the code US is updated from cfg80211 later, so ath10k should also
check the initial reg code before regulatory_hint().

After this fix, regdomain info is same between "iw reg get" and "iw reg
set xx", it does not have the regdomain info of phy#0 again.

global
country KR: DFS-JP
(2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 13), (N/A)
(5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 20), (N/A), AUTO-BW
(5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), (0 ms), DFS, AUTO-BW
(5490 - 5710 @ 160), (N/A, 30), (0 ms), DFS
(5735 - 5835 @ 80), (N/A, 30), (N/A)
(57000 - 66000 @ 2160), (N/A, 43), (N/A)

This does not effect the channel list and power which ath10k used.
When the country code for regulatory_hint() in ath10k_mac_register()
is same with the global country code, then reg_set_rd_driver() of
cfg80211 called from crda which return -EALREADY to set_regdom() and
then update_all_wiphy_regulatory() will not be called while wlan load.
When run "iw reg set xx", reg_get_regdomain() which used by function
handle_channel() in net/wirelss/reg.c always use the regdomain
returned by get_cfg80211_regdom() because the initiator of last
regulatory_request is NL80211_REGDOM_SET_BY_USER, get_cfg80211_regdom()
is the global regdomain, then all the ieee80211_channel info is updated
in handle_channel() with the global regdomain.
